Litecoin Price Analysis
In the past few days, there was a sharp decline in bitcoin, Ethereum, ripple, and litecoin against the US Dollar. Earlier, LTC price struggled to gain bullish momentum above the $78.00 and $80.00 levels.
As a result, there was a strong decline below the $75.00 and $70.00 support levels. Moreover, there was a close below the $70.00 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).
During the decline, there was a break below an important bullish trend line with support at $72.80 on the 4-hours chart of the LTC/USD pair. The pair even nosedived below the $68.00 and $65.00 support levels.
Finally, it broke the $60.00 support and traded to a new weekly low at $57.25. It is currently consolidating losses, with an initial resistance is near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent slide from the $80.72 high to $57.25 low.
If there is an upside correction above the $62.80 level, litecoin price could recover towards the $68.00 resistance level. Besides, the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent slide from the $80.72 high to $57.25 low is near the $69.00 level to act as a hurdle.
Conversely, the pair could fail to continue higher above the $63.00 and $65.00 levels. In the mentioned case, there is a risk of more losses below the $58.00 level.
The next major support is near the $55.00 level, below which the bears are likely to aim a test of the $50.00 support level in the coming days.
