From the longer-term point of view, DMA200 at $44.54 served as an excellent jumping-off ground, and most likely to stop the correction once it happens. A sustainable move below this critical level will open up the way towards $40.50 (DMA50) and $36.00-$35.90 (the upside trendline from December 24, 2018 low.
The next bullish target is seen as high as $60.00, followed by psychological $70 and $71.13 (SMA50, weekly). LTC/USD stays below weekly SMA50 since May 2018, which means that a sustainable move higher will create an additional positive impulse.
