LTC is still ascending

Litecoin price chart by alelmnor

If we cast a quick look at the recent Litecoin price movement, we’ll see things are better than they seemed. Price fluctuation is found between the upper line and lower line in the channel, until now the price will drop closer than the rises. Litecoin needs more purchasing power to break the upper line and soar to the sky.

LTC is fighting resistance

Litecoin price chart by ChartChampions

Clearly, LTC is managing to overcome resistance from a few different levels: 0.786 Fibonacci, pitchfork, channel, and horizontal resistance. After the 150% rise that happened not so long ago, Litecoin is moving towards another upward wave. Therefore, a retracement seems like the most likely outcome, to the .382 retracement of Wave 3 or 1 of the Pitchfork sat around $49 dollars. If this level is broken, $42 holds a lot of support too. In the short term, Litecoin will breach $60.82 level.

So, when to trade LTC? ChartChampions says:

“$53 dollars which was old resistance has flipped nicely into support and I did take a scalp long from that a few days back (closed now). We also have the midpoint of the pitchfork so there is a support to be had on Litecoin. Either way, it is a good coin to be scalp trading. Although support is being held nicely at the moment (a good sign for the bulls), I am trading a pullback.”

Litecoin will soar before halving

Litecoin price chart by BitcoinGuru

BitcoinGuru has provided a very detailed Litecoin forecast, and it seems to be actualizing gradually. It did not rise to $60 by March 12th, as was predicted – that happened three days later. At this moment, LTC is holding near the top of the rising wedge and H&S neckline. Things are going well, but there might be time for a retracement down to the two areas of supports, which would be a good buy area.

BitcoinGuru provides the following trading guidelines:

Buy/Support:

$26.00-22.58

$30.50-28.50

$36-34

$44-40 - Ideal fully buyback area + strong support from 2017 + previous top holding as support +bottom of the bull neckline of the ascending triangle + potential last shoulder of the IH&S in green + target of the rising wedge

50.50-48.50 - Buy 25%

Sell/Resistances:

$60-64 - Sell - Neckline of IH&S, top of rising wedge and top based on Fib Extensions - HIT

$94-104 - Sell 50% - - Target of the IH&S - Potential target of the August 2019 Halving Rally / Blue Fractal

$140-150 - Sell 50% - Potential target of the August 2019 Halving Rally / Blue Fractal

Stoploss: $38, this is a stoploss for those who bought Litecoin below $36 and holding to sell on the parabolic rally close to June-July

Is LTC copying its 2015 price path?

Litecoin price chart by Kennyk2

A peculiar tendency has been noticed by user Kennyk2: LTC price’s current development path is reminiscent of events that took place back in 2015. Back then, LTC escaped the Bear market when the .50 EMA crossed the 200 EMA on the daily. This year, the same great results are expected. Kennyk2 predicts LTC will reach $100, and go even higher. It would be a nice idea to close the position at $99 because, at $100, a huge sell might happen.

Undoubtedly, Litecoin is on the rise, so it’s time to act, dear traders! It would be a good idea to buy LTC in several steps and continue keeping tabs on LTC tendencies and technical indicators not to miss the sell-off.
