Litecoin Price Analysis

Recently, there was a decent upward move in bitcoin, Ethereum ripple and litecoin against the US Dollar, but later all trimmed gains. It seems like LTC price struggled to clear the $42.50 resistance area.

A high is formed near $42.68 and the price is currently declining. It traded below the $42.00 and $41.50 support levels. Moreover, there was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $35.82 low to $42.68 high.

The price is now trading near the $40.00 level and below the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). An immediate support is near the $39.25 level. It represents the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $35.82 low to $42.68 high.

If there is a downside break and close below $39.25, there is a risk of additional losses in litecoin. The next stop for the bears might be $37.44 or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $35.82 low to $42.68 high.

On the upside, there are many hurdles for the bulls near the $41.50 and $42.00 levels. Furthermore, there is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $41.50 on the 4-hours chart of the LTC/USD pair.

Therefore, a successful close above the $42.00 resistance is needed for a decent recovery. Still, the price must gain momentum above the $42.50 resistance to set the stage for a larger upward move in the near term.
