Earlier, Martinez had highlighted that Chainlink might be experiencing a downturn following a head-and-shoulders pattern after it fell below the $12 support level. This pattern often indicates a potential for further price drops.

Be careful with #Chainlink! The recent upswing to $13 could have been a retest of the head-and-shoulders pattern’s neckline. https://t.co/rMxsMsOtzp

Currently, with LINK hovering slightly above $13, Martinez cautions that the altcoin may be turning a previous support level into a new resistance. The recent rise to $13 might have been a retest of this critical level.
