Litecoin’s technical picture
On the charts, LTC/USD is capped by $51.75 (SMA100, 4-hour) and psychological $52.00. Once it is cleared, the recovery may be extended towards $54.20 (SMA200, 4-hour), that's where the new selling interest may appear. The Relative Strength Index has reverted from the overbought territory, meaning that the downside correction is highly possible.
On the downside, the support lies with SMA50 ($50.76) and $50.00. It is followed by $47.69 (October 29) and $47.21 (August 14 low).
