For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $46.18 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $47.32.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $47 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of another breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $48 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $48.07.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $46.18 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $45.43 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$44 levels. The second major support level at $44.29 should limit any downside.
