Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – December 10th, 2020

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $75.95 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $79.74.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from Wednesday’s high $78.24.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $80 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin could test the second major resistance level at $82.04 and resistance at $85.

A fall through the $75.95 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $73.65 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $69.86. The 38.2% FIB of $71 should limit the downside.
