It's a bullish start to the day. Steering clear of early lows would support recovery of Sunday's losses.

Bitcoin and Litecoin over dollar banknotes.

Litecoin

Litecoin slid by 8.02% on Sunday. Reversing a 6.01% rally from Saturday, Litecoin ended the week up by 17.95% to $56.77.

It was a mixed start to the day. Litecoin rallied to an early morning intraday high $65.31 before hitting reverse.

Litecoin broke through the first major resistance level at $63.51 before tumbling to an early morning intraday low $52.70.

The second major resistance level at $65.29 capped the upside in the early morning.

Litecoin fell through the first major support level at $58.79 and the second major support level at $55.85.

Avoiding sub-$55 support levels, Litecoin briefly revisited $59 levels before falling back through the first and second major support levels.

A late move back through the second major support level reduced the deficit on the day.

At the time of writing, Litecoin was up by 0.93% to $57.30. A mixed start to the day saw Litecoin fall to an early morning low $55.72 before striking a high $57.60.

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to move through the $58.26 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $63.82.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $60 levels.

Barring another crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.

Failure to move through the $58.26 pivot would bring the 23.6% FIB of $54 and the first major support level at $51.21 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$50 levels. The second major support level sits at $45.65.
