For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to move back through the $200 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $205.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from $200 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $204.95 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 $209.
Failure to move back through the $200 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $196 and the 23.6% FIB of $195 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$190 support levels. The second major support level at $191 should limit the downside.
