For the day ahead
Litecoin is expected to break through the $ 59.53 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $ 61.60.
However, support from the broader market would be needed for Litecoin to exceed $ 60.
Barring an extended cryptocurrency rally, the first major resistance level would likely limit any upside.
In the event of a sustained breakout, Litecoin would likely test resistance at $ 62 before any pullback. The second major resistance level is found at $ 63.96.
Failure to break out of the $ 59.53 rotation level would bring the first major support level at $ 57.17 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off later in the day, however, Litecoin should avoid the second major support level at $ 55.10.
