For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $130.27 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $139.63.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from Thursday’s high $136.29.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $140 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $150 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $145.65.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $130.27 pivot level would bring the 38.2% FIB of $125 and the first major support level at $124.25 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $114.89.
