For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to move back through the $88.66 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $91.79.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from Thursday’s high $91.35.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of another extended breakout, Litecoin could test the second major resistance level at $94.47.
Failure to move back through the $88.66 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $85.98 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$80 levels. The second major support level at $82.85 should limit the downside.
