LTC/USD Daily ChartOn the daily chart, the bulls still have an upper hand as LTC managed to flip resistance levels into support in this recent uptrend. The rising moving averages and the RSI in the positive zone reinforce a bullish scenario. Bulls will now attempt to push the price above the $84.50 resistance. If they succeed, the LTC/USD pair could rally to $90 and ultimately $100.
On the downside, LTC bears may have a hard time pushing the price down due to a thick layer of support located down to $69. However, if the bears sink the price beneath this key support at $69, it will suggest that the momentum has weakened. A break below the MA 50 at $56 could signal that the bears have made a strong comeback.
LTC/USD 4-Hour ChartAs seen on the 4- hour chart, LTC bullish momentum took a breather on its approach to $84. A slight correction ensued in which LTC tested the $80 support. The bulls didn’t give up ground as the $80 support absorbed the bearish pressure, preventing Litecoin from falling further. If this support caves in, the sellers will bump into another significant support on the way to $75.
On the upside, a breakout above $84.50 holds the key to an LTC rally to $100. Although while trading beyond the $70 mark and 4 hour MA 50 the LTC/USD pair are only bullish; the main resistance is found at the $84.50 and $90 level. If the LTC/USD pair is trading beneath $70, the $60 and 4 hour MA 200 zone and $50 support levels may be tested by sellers.
