For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to avoid the 23.6% FIB of $178 and the $175 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $186 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from Wednesday’s high $183.03 levels
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $190 would likely cap the upside.
In the event of another breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $200 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $194.
A fall through the 23.6% FIB of $178 and the $175 pivot would bring the first major support level at $167 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$165. The second major support level sits at $156.
