Litecoin Price Analysis

In the past few days, there were decent gains in bitcoin, Ethereum, ripple and litecoin against the US Dollar. LTC price gained pace and surpassed the $58.00 and $60.00 resistance levels.

It even spiked above the $62.00 level and traded as high as $62.43 before correcting lower. There was a break below the $60.00 level, plus the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $50.67 low to $62.43 high.

However, there is a strong support base forming near the $58.50 and $58.00 levels. The bulls protected the recent decline from the $62.43 high near the $58.00 area. More importantly, there is a major bullish trend line forming with support near $57.85 on the 4-hours chart of the LTC/USD pair.

Besides, the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $50.67 low to $62.43 high is likely to act as a strong support along with the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).

If there is a downside break below the $58.00 and $56.55 support levels, litecoin price might continue to move down towards the $52.00 support level in the near term.

On the upside, there is a major hurdle near the $62.00 and $62.40 levels. If the price surpasses the $62.43 swing high, there are chances of a fresh rally in the coming sessions.

In the mentioned case, the price may perhaps test the $65.00 level. Any further gains could lead the price towards the key $68.50 resistance area, where the bears might emerge.
