For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to move through the 23.6% FIB and the $54.62 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $56.13.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $56 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin would likely test resistance at $57 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $58.35.
Failure to move through the 23.6% FIB and the $54.62 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $52.40 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$50 levels. The second major support level at $50.89 should limit any downside.
