For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid a fall back through the $169 pivot to bring the 62% FIB of $174 and the first major resistance level at $183 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $180 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Sunday’s high $181.20 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $200. The second major resistance level sits at $195.
A fall back through the $169 pivot would bring the first major support level at $157 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$150. The second major support level sits at $143.
A sustained fall through the 62% FIB of $174 would form a near-term bearish trend from 10th May’s swing hi $413.91.
