For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $45.49 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $46.02.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $46 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of another breakout, the second major resistance level at $46.36 could come into play.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $45.49 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $45.15 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$44 levels. The second major support level at $44.62 should limit any downside.
