LTC/USD, the technical picture
Looking technically, LTC/USD recovery is capped by SMA50 (Simple Moving Average) and the upper line of a Bollinger Band on a daily chart at $60.50. The coin has been trying to break it three days in a row with no luck. Once it is out of the way, the upside is likely to gain traction with the next focus on the recent top of $64.10, followed by a psychological $65.00.
On the downside, the strong support created by $57.80 (the lower boundary of the recent consolidation channel). It is followed by $55.60 (the middle line of the Bollinger Band on a daily chart) that has potential may slow down the sellers and trigger another recovery wave. A sustainable move below this handle will open up the way towards $52.80 back in focus. This is a lower boundary of thee above-mentioned a consolidation range.
