Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – May 13th, 2021

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to move through the $336 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $370.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from $365 levels.

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 $410. The second major resistance level sits at $428.

Failure to move through the $336 pivot would bring the 23.6% FIB of $322 and the first major support level at $277 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Litecoin should steer clear of the Second major support level at $243. The 38.2% FIB of $265 should limit the downside.
