The Hourly View for LTC

Last Updated October 2, 2020, 07:015 GMT

At the time of this writing, LTC’s price is down $-0.07 (-0.15%) from the hour prior. This is a reversal of the price action on the previous hour, in which price moved up. 1 Price action traders may also wish to note that we see a doji candlestick pattern on LTC. Given that we see downtrend on the 20 hourly candle timeframe, and that such candlestick patterns often denote reversals, this may be worth noting. The moving averages on the hourly timeframe suggest a bearishness in price, as the 20, 50, 100 and 200 are all in a bearish alignment — meaning the shorter duration moving averages are below the longer duration averages, implying a stable downward trend.
