For the day ahead
Litecoin would need to move back through the $204.99 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $230.96.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $220 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Monday’s high $227.72 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $240 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $253.69.
Failure to move back through the $204.99 pivot level would bring the 23.6% FIB of $195 and the first major support level at $182.26 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer well clear of the second major support level at $156.26. The 38.2% FIB of $163 should limit the downside in the event of a sell-off.
