Litecoin Price Analysis
This week, there was a fresh decline in bitcoin, Ethereum, ripple, and litecoin against the US Dollar. Earlier, LTC followed a bullish path and surpassed the $150 resistance.
The price even broke the $160 level and settled above the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). However, the bulls failed to clear the $165 resistance zone. A high was formed near $166 and the price declined below $160. There was a break below the $152 and $150 support levels.
It is now trading close to the $140 support zone and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). There is also a major rising channel forming with support near $140 on the 4-hours chart of the LTC/USD pair.
A low is formed near $138 and the price is currently consolidating losses. An initial resistance is near the $152 level. The 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $166 swing high to $138 low is also near the $152 level.
The next major resistance is near the $160 level. It is close to the 76.4% 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $166 swing high to $138 low. If litecoin price clears the $160 resistance, it could easily surpass the $165 resistance and continue higher.
Conversely, the price could break the channel support at $140 to start another decline. A close below the $140 and $138 levels may possibly spark a sharp decline towards the $122 and $120 support levels.
