Litecoin

Litecoin rallied by 5.54% on Sunday. Reversing a 1% decline from Saturday, Litecoin ended the week down 3.45% to $41.93.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $39.43, Litecoin rallied to a late intraday high $42.27.

Litecoin broke through the day’s major resistance levels on the way. In spite of a late pullback, Litecoin held above the third major resistance level at $41.22 until the day end.

At the time of writing, Litecoin was up by 0.74% to $42.24. A bullish start to the day saw Litecoin rise from an early morning low $41.91 to a high $42.57 before easing back.

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to steer clear of sub-$42 levels to support another run at the first major resistance level at $42.90.

Litecoin would need the support of the broader market to break out from the morning high $42.57.

Barring an extended crypto rally, however, the first major resistance level and morning high would likely limit any upside.

Failure to steer clear of sub-$42 levels could see Litecoin hit reverse.

A fall back through the morning low $41.91 to $41.30 levels would bring the first major support level at $40.32 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$40 levels and the second major support level at $38.72.
