Crypto Price Predictions for Today, September 17: Ethereum (ETH), XRP, and Chainlink (LINK)

Three prices could decide how today unfolds: $2,450 for Ethereum, $1.32 for XRP, and $11.10 for Chainlink. Each asset is close to a level that has separated a possible recovery from another move lower.

The charts offer different possibilities, but the next test of those levels matters more than any single indicator reading.

Ethereum Price Remains Inside Its Late August Range

Ethereum price has moved between roughly $2,350 and $2,570 since the end of August. That range remains intact, so another day of consolidation is possible. The level near $2,450 divides the range into an upper and lower section and offers the first clue about where ETH could travel next.

A move above $2,450 could carry Ethereum price toward $2,550 in the coming sessions. If ETH cannot get past the middle of the range, a return toward $2,360 becomes possible. The lower boundary near $2,350 matters even more because a break beneath it could expose $2,270.

The indicator readings from Investing.com’s five-hour chart lean cautious. The RSI(14) stands at 46.587 and is neutral, which fits a market that has not settled on a direction. The Stochastic(9,6) reads 32.708 with a sell signal, so the short-term move still lacks strength. MACD(12,26) is at -22.18 and also gives a sell signal. Bull/Bear Power(13) reads -7.5101, another sell signal that points to weak buying pressure. Together, those readings make a clear move above $2,450 especially useful for judging whether the upper part of the range is within reach.

Ethereum’s moving averages tell a more mixed story. Both MA10 readings carry buy signals and lie near $2,420 to $2,431, which could help support a move within the range. Both MA50 readings carry sell signals near $2,468 to $2,481. Those levels could make an advance beyond $2,450 difficult. The MA200 readings remain on buy signals near $2,282 to $2,309, below the current consolidation.

Ethereum Price Prediction for Today

  • Bullish scenario: ETH moves above $2,450 and holds there. That would put $2,550 within reach, although the MA50 levels could slow the climb.
  • Neutral scenario: Ethereum continues to trade inside the $2,350 to $2,570 range, with $2,450 dividing its daily moves.
  • Bearish scenario: ETH falls toward $2,360 and then breaks below $2,350. That would open a possible path toward $2,270.

XRP Price Faces Another Test After Failing at $1.32

XRP price tested resistance near $1.32 yesterday but could not break above it. That failed attempt leaves the level as a hurdle today. Yesterday’s low near $1.24 is the next price to watch if XRP turns lower again. A break below that low could take the asset toward $1.20 before the day ends.

The recovery path begins with a move back above $1.32. That would return XRP price to its former consolidation area between $1.32 and $1.47. A break beyond $1.47 would offer a stronger bullish signal and could bring $1.55 into view today.

Investing.com’s five-hour indicators show why XRP needs to reclaim resistance before the recovery case becomes convincing. RSI(14) reads 43.546 with a sell signal, placing it below the neutral midpoint. The Stochastic(9,6) stands at 20.046 and also signals sell. MACD(12,26) is at -0.025 with a sell reading, and Bull/Bear Power(13) is at -0.0267 with the same signal. All 4 indicators currently favor caution as XRP tests its nearby levels.

The moving averages mostly support that reading. Both MA10 values sit close to $1.31 and carry sell signals, so XRP would need to regain that area on its way toward $1.32. Both MA50 values are higher, near $1.36 to $1.37, and also signal sell. The simple MA200 at $1.2710 carries a buy signal, but the exponential MA200 at $1.2990 carries a sell signal. That split makes the longer average readings less decisive than the nearby $1.32 resistance.

Moving AverageSimple ValueSimple SignalExponential ValueExponential Signal
MA10$1.3108Sell$1.3111Sell
MA50$1.3696Sell$1.3590Sell
MA200$1.2710Buy$1.2990Sell

XRP Price Prediction for Today

  • Bullish scenario: XRP reclaims $1.32, moves through the former range, and breaks above $1.47. That could put $1.55 within reach.
  • Neutral scenario: XRP returns above $1.32 but remains between that level and $1.47 for the rest of the day.
  • Bearish scenario: Resistance at $1.32 holds, and XRP retests yesterday’s $1.24 low. A break below it could lead toward $1.20.

Chainlink Price Tests $11.10 After Breaking Its Former Range

Chainlink price broke below its consolidation area 2 days ago and moved lower yesterday, reaching about $10.60. LINK is now testing the former boundary near $11.10. The outcome could determine whether yesterday’s low gets another visit or the price moves back into its previous range.

If $11.10 continues to act as resistance, Chainlink price could return to $10.60. A deeper decline could take LINK toward $9. If LINK breaks above $11.10 instead, $11.50 becomes the next level to watch. A move through $11.50 could extend toward $12 before the day ends.

LINKUSD Price Chart / TradingView.com

The Investing.com five-hour indicators do not all point the same way. RSI(14) reads 45.829 and remains neutral. The Stochastic(9,6) stands at 32.581 with a sell signal, and MACD(12,26) reads -0.241 with another sell signal. Bull/Bear Power(13), however, is positive at 0.028 and carries a buy signal. That lone buy reading offers some support for the current test of $11.10, though LINK still needs to clear resistance to strengthen the recovery case.

Chainlink’s moving averages show a similar divide. Both MA10 readings, near $11.01 and $11.07, carry buy signals. They are close to the $11.10 test and could offer support if LINK holds above them. Both MA50 readings signal sell near $11.46 and $11.74, placing possible obstacles around and beyond $11.50. The MA200 readings near $10.73 and $10.81 remain on buy signals, close to yesterday’s $10.60 low.

MA10$11.013Buy$11.065Buy
MA50$11.736Sell$11.457Sell
MA200$10.728Buy$10.811Buy

Chainlink Price Prediction for Today

  • Bullish scenario: LINK breaks above $11.10 and then clears $11.50. That could allow Chainlink price to reach $12 before the day ends.
  • Neutral scenario: LINK trades around $11.10 without a clear break, leaving the direction uncertain.
  • Bearish scenario: $11.10 holds as resistance, and LINK returns to $10.60. A further break lower could put $9 in view.
