Litecoin is one of the most popular cryptocurrencies and has been gaining a lot of attention due to its impressive bull run.

Litecoin Technical Analysis

Litecoin’s price is trading well above the major support levels of $66, $62, and $59. The MACD shows a bullish crossover on the daily chart indicating that buyers have gained control over the market.

The RSI is also in the overbought zone, indicating that Litecoin could potentially come under some selling pressure near-term. However, if LTC succeeds in maintaining its price above the $70 level, it could be on track to test higher resistance levels in the near future.
