For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to move through the 38.2% FIB and the $72.89 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $81.48.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from $75 levels.
Barring another extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin would likely test resistance at $85 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $91.85.
Failure to move through the $72.89 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $62.52 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$60 levels. The second major support level sits at $53.93.
