Litecoin Fails to Sustain Above $50 Resistance, Resumes Downtrend

May 19, 2020 at 12:00 // News

Litecoin has not made any significant price movement. There seems to be a striking balance between the bulls and bears.


The bulls rejected further downward price movement but managed to push LTC to $46 high. The resultant effect is a further downward move to the previous low at $43. Nonetheless, if the current downward move persists, we expect LTC to fall $39 low. 


Nonetheless, if the crypto finds support above $44 and rebounds, the coin will rally above $50 resistance. The momentum will extend to $55 and we will see the resumption of a new uptrend.


However, the bears may likely put up a defence which will hinder further upward movement. In that case, the coin will trade in a sideways move below $50 resistance. Meanwhile, the crypto has fallen and it is finding support above $44 support.


Litecoin indicator analysis
