At the moment, LTC’s price is down $-0.02 (-0.04%) from the hour prior. It’s been a feast for bulls operating on an hourly timeframe, as LTC has now gone up 4 of the past 5 hours. 2 Price action traders may also wish to note that we see a doji candlestick pattern on LTC. Given that we see an uptrend on the 20 and 10 hourly candle timeframe, and that such candlestick patterns often denote reversals, this may be worth noting. Of note is that the 100 hour changed directions on LTC; it is now pointing up. The moving averages on the hourly timeframe suggest a bullishness in price, as the 20, 50, 100 and 200 are all in a bullish alignment — meaning the shorter durations are above the longer duration averages, implying a sound upward trend.
