Moreover, there was a close below the $45.50 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). The decline gathered pace below the $45.00 level and the price traded to a new monthly low near the $42.84 level.

The price is currently consolidating losses above the $42.80 level. An initial resistance is near the $43.80 level. Additionally, it coincides with the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $46.37 high to $42.84 low.

More importantly, there is a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $44.80 on the 4-hours chart of the LTC/USD pair. If there is an upside break above the $45.00 resistance, the price could start a decent recovery.
