Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – March 17th, 2021

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $199 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $208.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from Tuesday’s high $205.27.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high would likely cap any upside.

In the event of an extended rally, Litecoin could test resistance at $215 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $214.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $199 pivot level would bring the 23.6% FIB of $195 and the first major support level at $194 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$185 support levels. The second major support level at $185 should limit the downside.
