For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to move through the $45.05 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $46.85.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $46 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $46.96 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of another breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $47 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $48.76.
Failure to move through the $45.05 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $43.14 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$42 levels. The second major support level sits at $41.34.
