Litecoin Technical Analysis

The first thing we should note is that the current price of Litecoin is sitting close to its 100 and 200 day moving averages; moving average crosses often indicate a change in momentum, so this may be worth keeping an eye on. Volatility for Litecoin has been contracting over the past two weeks relative to volatility over the past month. Whether volatility reverts will be something to watch. Trend traders will want to observe that the strongest trend appears on the 30 day horizon; over that time period, price has been moving down. Also of note is that on a 14 day basis price appears to be forming a base — which could the stage for it being a support/resistance level going forward. For another vantage point, consider that Litecoin’s price has gone up 6 of the previous 10 trading days.
