Litecoin (LTC) has recently shown a strong upward trend in the market, reaching $102 and briefly hitting $110 before a slight 2% decrease in the last 24 hours.
Performance Analysis of Litecoin
Among the largest cryptocurrencies, Litecoin (LTC) holds the 20th position in terms of market value on CoinMarketCap, with a market cap of $7.59 billion. Despite a 28% decrease in trading volume to $1.09 billion within the last 24 hours, the interest from investors remains high with the volume still above $1 billion.
Recent data indicates that LTC has experienced a gradual increase, ranging from $86 to $100, reflecting a more than 17% gain weekly and over 23% monthly.
The recent surge in Litecoin’s value came after being classified as a commodity by the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in a legal dispute involving KuCoin. This distinction reduces regulatory oversight by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), giving Litecoin an advantage over other cryptocurrencies facing legal uncertainties like Ethereum (ETH).
What Does the Technical Analysis Indicate for LTC?
Technical analysis suggests that breaching the $110 resistance level could lead to a positive momentum, potentially propelling Litecoin’s value to $120 and possibly $150. Conversely, a downward trend could drive the altcoin towards the $100 or even $90 support levels.
The Chaikin Money Flow Index predicts an upward movement, while the EMA crossing and RSI levels support a positive outlook for the cryptocurrency.
