Bitcoin maintains its position above the $36,500 level, with no significant changes since our last market analysis. Here's an overview of the market situation for Chainlink (LINK) and Stellar (XLM) as of Tuesday, November 14.
Chainlink (LINK)
In the past two months, LINK has seen a remarkable 180% increase, reaching a yearly high of $16.61. Currently, the asset has entered a phase of relative stability, oscillating within a sideways trading range between the support zone of $13.65-$14.32 and resistance levels of $16.00-$16.61.
Given Bitcoin's predominantly neutral or positive trajectory, the likelihood of LINK continuing its upward trend is high. The next targets for buyers are projected at around $17 and $18. In this scenario, a brief trading period within this range can be expected.
If Bitcoin undergoes a deeper correction, LINK might retreat to the buyer's level at $12.84 and retest the broader support range of $11.16-$12.03, which could present an attractive spot buying opportunity. This analysis assumes that BTC will sustain its ascending trend and secure a position above the $30,000 mark.

Stellar (XLM)
Despite a local upward trend on the XLM chart, it's important to remain cautious, given the lack of substantial buying power. After an initial pump due to Ripple's victory over the SEC, Stellar's gains were completely reversed. Since October 20, XLM has only grown by about 25%, relatively modest compared to other altcoins.
Currently, XLM is trading between the support zone of $0.115-$0.120 and the resistance zone of $0.132-$0.137. The continuation of this local upward trend appears to be the most likely scenario. In this context, XLM could reach levels of $0.140 and $0.146, but any further growth would depend on the activation of buyers and increased trading volumes.
A lower support zone exists around $0.105-$0.111. If BTC begins a downward trend, none of the support levels for XLM may hold against a potential fall, and the asset could drop below the $0.10 and $0.09 marks. Therefore, XLM doesn't seem to be a particularly attractive asset for accumulation in the spot market.
