Over the last 12 months TRX returned -0.83% and LINK -34.27%. Over just the last month the picture is reversed: TRX -0.62%, LINK +28.28%. Short periods can tell a very different story from long ones, which is why picking a coin from last month's chart rarely works.
Chainlink moves about ±2.0% on a typical day against ±0.7% for TRON. In the past year TRX fell as much as 22% from a peak and LINK 69%. Bigger swings mean bigger possible gains and bigger possible losses, size your position so a fall like that wouldn't force you to sell.
The correlation of their daily moves over the past year is 0.45 (1 = always together, 0 = unrelated): they often move in the same direction, but not always. That makes holding both a little less risky than holding either alone.
TRON is the bigger network, with a market cap about 3.0× that of Chainlink. A lower price per coin doesn't make a coin “cheaper”: what matters is market cap, and how many new coins will still be created (TRX: no fixed cap; LINK: capped at 1.00B).
Both trade on FIU-registered exchanges. Profit on either is taxed at 30% plus 4% cess, 1% TDS is deducted when you sell, and a loss on one can't be set off against a gain on the other. Guides: how to buy TRON · how to buy Chainlink · best crypto apps in India.

We don't give buy or sell advice. The data shows how each has behaved, not what happens next. Many investors hold more than one coin rather than choosing; with a correlation of 0.45, they often move in the same direction, but not always, so holding both spreads less risk than it might seem.
