For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $185.36 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $190.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $190 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, Tuesday’s high $189.51 and the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended rally, Litecoin could test resistance at the 23.6% FIB of $195 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $194.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $185 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $181 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $177.
