Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – August 7th, 2021

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to avoid the $147 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $152 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from Friday’s high $150.83.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.

In the event of another extended breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $160 before any pullback. The second major resistance level at sits $156.

A fall through the $147 pivot would bring the first major support level at $143 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$140 levels. The second major support level sits at $138.
