Litecoin Price Analysis

In the past few sessions, there was a decent recovery in bitcoin, Ethereum, ripple, and litecoin against the US Dollar. Earlier, LTC price extended its decline below the $42.20 support level.

However, the price found a strong support near the $41.50 level. A support base was formed above $41.50 and the price recently started an upside correction. It surpassed the $42.50 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).

There was a break above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $45.55 high to $40.86 low. The price is now testing the $44.00 resistance area.

On the upside, there is a crucial bearish trend line forming with resistance near $44.50 on the 4-hours chart of the LTC/USD pair. The trend line is close to the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $45.55 high to $40.86 low.

Litecoin price must surpass the $44.50 resistance zone and the trend line to continue higher. The next major resistance on the upside is near the $45.50 level, above which the bulls might aim a test of $50.00.

Conversely, the price may perhaps fail to clear the $44.50 resistance. An initial support is near the $43.20 level. The first major support is near the $43.00 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). Any further losses may perhaps lead the price back towards the main $41.50 support zone.
