LTC Price Eyes Rally?

However, despite the massive buying, LTC price tanked over 5% on Saturday, closing in at $128.13. The coin hit a bottom and peak of $123.93 and $139.86 in the past 24 hours. The weekly chart for the token also illustrated a 3% drop. This waning action primarily falls in with the broader crypto market volatility.
