Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – December 25th, 2020

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $107.39 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $116.11.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from the morning high $112.67.

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

In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $120 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $121.01.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $107.39 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $102.49 and 23.6% FIB of $101 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer of the second major support level at $93.77.
