Litecoin Price Prediction – How Litecoin’s Price Action Looks For the day ahead
Litecoin will need to move through the $46.75 level if it must support a run at the major resistance of $47.68. Support from the entire market would be required, for Litecoin price to break back to the $47 area. Barring a wider crypto rally, the initial major resistance position and Tuesday’s high point of $47.84 would likely limit the chances of any upward action. Failure to move past the $46.75 level could see the price of Litecoin struggle throughout today’s trade session. A fall to the morning low of $46.13 would bring LTC’s first major support into play. This will be the $45.63 area. Barring an extended sell-off, the price of Litecoin should be far from its second major support of $44.69.
