Litecoin: Amid heavy selling pressures, indications point at a possible 60% rally

ambcrypto.com:

Litecoin has been trading at a discount from its previous ATH just like many other cryptocurrencies. However, LTC’s latest performance puts it in oversold territory especially now that it has dipped its toes below $100 once again.

Litecoin traded at $389 at its peak in May 2021 and has not managed to rally back to those levels since then. It traded at $98 at the time of this press, courtesy of a strong bearish start. Its current price is discounted by roughly 77% from its ATH, meaning it is severely sold off. LTC’s latest selloff pushed it closer to its 2022 low at $90.

The price bounced back significantly the last time it went to $90 in February this year. A similar outcome was observed in January when the price dipped below $100. This suggests that it might be encountering structural support around $90. A bullish breakout within the same level is probable, especially considering its heavy discount.

Litecoin’s rally in March resulted in a healthy uptrend that broke out of its descending range which it had been locked in since December. Its April performance has erased those gains but the rally did highlight strong momentum during a bull market.

Tracing Fibonacci retracement lines from the top to its February low reveals that the next Fibonacci retracement level is at the $161 price level. It would take a 60% rally for the price to soar back to that level. Such a strong rally would require heavy accumulation. Litecoin’s latest dip presents yet another opportunity for accumulation at lower price levels.
