For the day ahead
Litecoin should avoid a fall through the $ 64.28 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $ 68.39.
However, support from the broader market would be needed for Litecoin to break out of Thursday’s high of $ 66.66.
Barring another 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 $ 70 before any pullback. The second major resistance level is found at $ 70.77, with 38.2% of the FIB at $ 71.
Failure to avoid a fall through the pivot level of $ 64.28 would bring the first major support level at $ 61.90 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off later in the day, however, Litecoin is expected to avoid $ 60. The second major support level is at $ 57.79.
