BNB is trading at $653, representing a 1.51% decrease over the last 24 hours. The market cap stands at $92.13 billion, and the trading volume has decreased by 17.54% to $1.74 billion. The coin has gained 10.72% on the weekly chart, making it one of the best cryptocurrencies to invest in today.

According to an analysis by crypto trader GemBooster, BNB broke above a falling wedge pattern on the daily chart. Price surged after clearing the descending resistance line, and support formed near $530. Sellers may attempt to defend the $680 zone, but if bulls push higher, price may test $720 next. The breakout confirms trend reversal from the wedge, and the coin is set to hit $700 in the near future.

$BNB just pulled a clean breakout!

It’s now comfortably trading above key levels. If bulls keep control, we might be gearing up for that $700+ zone next.

3. Chainlink (LINK)

LINK is currently trading at around $17.07, with a 1.12% increase in the past day. Its trading volume has decreased by 15.85% to $559.87 million, while the market cap stands at $11.22 billion. Meanwhile, the coin has gained 21.51% on the weekly chart.

LINK broke out of a descending channel on the daily chart. The price of the coin now trades above the 100-day moving average as bulls reclaimed the $15.50 level. The coin now faces crucial resistance at $18.00 and $21.50. If momentum continues, bulls may push the price of the coin to $26.00 next. The next major resistance stands at $31.00. However, the support zone between $11.00 and $13.00 remains valid. Buyers must protect the $15.00 zone in case of any pullback. The breakout signals a potential trend shift, and price needs to close above $18.00 for further confirmation.
