For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $59.75 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $61.79.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from the morning high $61.00.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $62 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin would likely test resistance at $63 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $62.85.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $59.75 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $58.69 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer well clear of the 23.6% FIB of $54.00. The second major support level at $56.65 should limit any downside.
