Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – December 24th, 2020

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to move through the 23.6% FIB and the $104.98 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $114.69.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $110 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Wednesday’s high $117.32 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $120 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $127.02.

Failure to move through the 23.6% FIB and the $104.98 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $92.65 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer of sub-$90 levels and the 38.2% FIB of $86. The second major support level sits at $82.94.
