Trend-focused traders would be interested to note that the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicator is below -100, meaning the market price is unusually low and below its rolling moving average. Technical analysis indicates that a new, strong downtrend could be forthcoming with short positions favored. Momentum evaluation shows that the Relative Strength Index indicates Litecoin is in an oversold condition, which could precipitate a reversal and set up a new bullish phase. Analysis based on the asset volatility indicates that LTC's lower Bollinger Band® is at $71.33, indicating that the market is oversold and fertile for new buyers. As the trading day commences, technical analysis suggests LTC could be slowing down soon; it is getting close to the resistance line and is now at $75.8, only $3 away. Crossing the resistance line could, however, suggest that further gains are ahead.
Overall, the technical outlook suggests LTC is likely to remain muted for the immediate future, with no clear-cut direction.
