For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid the $191 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $200 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from Thursday’s high $197.67.
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 $215. The second major resistance level sits at $207.
A fall through the $191 pivot would bring the first major support level at $185.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Litecoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $176.
A sustained fall through the 62% FIB of $174 would form a near-term bearish trend from 10th May’s swing hi $413.91.
