For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $55.32 pivot to support another run at the first major resistance level at $56.53.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $56.50 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and the morning high $56.85 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin would likely test the second major resistance level at $57.41 before any pullback.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $55.32 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $54.44 and the 23.6% FIB of $54 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$54 levels. The second major support level sits at $53.23.
