A V-shaped recovery during June’s second week surged the LTC/USDT pair 46% higher to $60.8. However, the profit booking from short-term traders triggered a minor pullback of 18.6% and plunged the price to a $50 psychological level.

Furthermore, the replenished bullish momentum at this support surged the LTC price to its current level at $53.76. 

The technical chart shows the formation of a cup and handle pattern in the daily time frame chart.

This bullish reversal pattern should guide the price action 14.2% high to the neckline resistance of $60.8. Furthermore, an upside breakout from this resistance would provide another footstep for traders to continue the rally.

If the buyers show sustainability above the $60.8 mark, the technical set-up indicates that the coin price could rise 20.6% to $73.5.

On a contrary note, if the sellers undermine the rising bullish momentum and revert the LTC price lower, the traders may witness a range-bound rally.
