LTC has been coiling up for the past few weeks on several intervals. On the longer intervals (1h and up) we've been seeing a lot consolidation in the $20-35 price channel. While on the shorter intervals we have seen a inner consolidation pattern since our last test of the $30 resistance zone. Finally making a move and breakout of the soft resistance at $28, LTC is primed for a strong move against the major resistance at $30. Good technical news being released about LTC (RSK/LTC mention by coblee), and uncertainty regarding the BTC UASF on 01AUG, seems to be main drivers of this rally. LTC also is a good option for new traders (low price + decent price stability) which could help boost this rally has mainstream investors begin eyeing the crypto-verse.
Ever skeptical, I recommend placing stops just below the support established at $27, as a dip below there will change the bullish sentiment. However, I am long for this coin, and expect to see a lot of movement in the next week. Target 1 is at $31.50, next stop will be the $35 level.
Stop: $26.75
Target 1: $31.50
