Litecoin’s (LTC) price decline has slowed, remaining at $45 since February 6.

Litecoin price long-term prediction: bearish


Buyers have defended this lowest price level for more than three years. Over the past week, the crypto asset has traded sideways, staying above the $45 support but below the moving average lines. The upward movement is currently restricted by the 21-day SMA barrier.


LTC is stabilising above the $50 support level and retesting the 21-day SMA barrier. The LTC price has entered the market’s oversold territory. The altcoin will rise if buyers emerge from the oversold market. Litecoin could reach $67 if buyers sustain the price above the 21-day SMA. If it loses its current support, it will fall back to its lowest price.


Technical Indicators:


  • Resistance Levels – $100, $120, $140


  • Support Levels – $60, $40, $20

Litecoin price indicators analysis


The 21-day and 50-day SMAs have dropped significantly to the bottom of the chart. On February 6, the long candlestick tail indicates strong buying pressure near the $45 low. The moving average lines on the 4-hour chart are horizontal, indicating that the LTC price has paused above the $45 support. However, the price bars are positioned between the moving average lines.
