For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to move through the $168 pivot to bring the 62% FIB of $174 and the first major resistance level at $176 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to out from the 62% FIB.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $180 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin could test the second major resistance level at $190.
Failure to move through the $168 pivot would bring the first major support level at $154 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$150 levels. The second major support level sits at $146.
A sustained fall through the 62% FIB of $174 would form a near-term bearish trend from 10th May’s swing hi $413.91.
