For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid a fall back through the $73.00 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $77.66.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from Wednesday’s high $77.18.
Barring another extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of another extended breakout, Litecoin would likely test resistance at $80 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $81.84.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $73.00 pivot level would bring the 38.2% FIB of $71and the first major support level at $68.82 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$68. The second major support level sits at $64.16.
