For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid the $172 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $177 and the 23.6% FIB of $178 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from $175 levels
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and 23.6% FIB would likely cap the upside.
In the event of another breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $185 levels before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $181.
A fall through the $172 pivot would bring the first major support level at $169 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$165. The second major support level sits at $163.
