The Hourly View for LTC

Last Updated May 28, 2021, 01:016 GMT

Currently, Litecoin’s price is down $-0.35 (-0.18%) from the hour prior. This is the 2nd hour in a row Litecoin has seen its price head down. If you’re a trend trader, consider that the strongest clear trend on the hourly chart exists on the 100 hour timeframe. Price action traders may also wish to note that we see a pin bar candlestick pattern on Litecoin. Given that we see downtrend on the 10 hourly candle timeframe, and that such candlestick patterns often denote reversals, this may be worth noting. The moving averages on the hourly timeframe suggest a choppiness in price, as the 20, 50, 100 and 200 are all in a mixed alignment — meaning the trend across timeframes is inconsistent, indicating a potential opportunity for rangebound traders.

    $LTC has been having so much going for it for a while… the community is thick & involved. You don’t have an Exchange if you don’t support Litecoin. I feel like it is primed to explode. And if you wanna troll, there is always room in the fud folder.
