Litecoin Price Analysis

In the past few days, there was a sharp decline in bitcoin, Ethereum, ripple, and litecoin against the US Dollar. LTC price followed a bearish path from well above the $60.00 support area.

The recent decline was such that the price broke the key $52.50 support and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). Finally, there was a break below the $50.00 support and the price traded to a new monthly low of $44.69.

Litecoin price is currently trading with a bearish angle below $46.50. An initial resistance is near the $49.00 level. The 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $64.08 high to $44.69 low is also near the $49.00 area.

If there is an upside correction above the $50.00 level, the price could recover towards the $52.50 resistance. The main resistance is now near the $55.00 zone and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).

More importantly, there is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $54.60 on the 4-hours chart of the LTC/USD pair. The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $64.08 high to $44.69 low is also near $54.39.

Therefore, upsides are likely to remain capped in the near term towards the $52.50 and $55.00 levels. On the downside an initial support is near the $44.50 level.

If there is a bearish break below the $44.50 and $44.00 levels, there is a risk of a sharp decline towards the $40.00 support level in the near term.
