Crypto analyst Jonathan Carter highlighted that Chainlink price is testing support within a symmetrical triangle. The price is holding above the lower boundary on the higher timeframe. This level remains critical for maintaining structure. A bounce from this zone may confirm strength.

If support holds, Carter highlighted potential upside targets, which are $11.50, $22.00, $34.00, and $48.00. Each target is dependent upon momentum. No breakout is confirmed at this point. The pattern stays active until a clear move occurs.
