Key points: 

  • The rising Litecoin price has halted at monthly resistance of $64.7 as the market condition witnesses a sudden selling pressure.

A bullish recovery from $52.7 support drove the prices 24.5% higher to hit a record high of $67.5. Thus, the technical chart shows the Litecoin price has breached the multiple-month resistance of $64.7. This resistance level reverted the price several times over the past three months.

Thus, a bullish breakout from this barrier with a suitable rise in volume activity will offer a long opportunity for interest traders. Anyhow, traders must wait for a daily candle closing above this resistance which may surge the Litecoin prices to the $70.5 mark.

However, by the press time, it seems the crypto market is facing sudden selling pressure due to the unexpected number in the consumer price index(CPI). As a result, Bitcoin has dropped 4.3% and Ethereum 5.4%. 

Similarly, the Litecoin price has reverted below the mentioned resistance and lost most of its intraday gains. Thus, a long-wick rejection at the aforementioned important resistance($64.7) is unfavorable for buyers as it may further encourage a bearish reversal.

A potential reversal could pull the prices 7% lower to hit the local support of $58.8. Anyhow, the rising channel pattern is a bearish contention pattern, indicating the Litecoin price is eventually poised for a significant correction.

Thus, this pattern’s bullish breakout upper trendline will release the Bitcoin price from a bearish threat.
