LTC/USD daily chart
Litecoin price is settled comfortably above the support at $60. The stability followed a correction from lower support at $55. LTC/USD is also trading above a short term falling wedge pattern. The crypto needs to attract a huge volume and a sentimental change towards it in order to utilize the impact of the pattern’s break and pull the price above the hurdle at $70 in preparation for another attack on $80.
For now, technical indicators such as the RSI and the MACD hint that sideways trading is the most probable direction for LTC/USD.
LTC/USD 1-hour chart
Litecoin price is trading almost in the apex of a symmetrical triangle. The bulls need to focus on breaking above the resistance at $65. This coupled with a break above the triangle as well as a higher volume, could LTC/USD easily sail above the two key resistance zones at $70 and $80. Meanwhile, short term analysis using the Elliot Wave Oscillator hints that selling pressure could continue, and even force LTC towards the support at $60.
