The coin is rebounding from a rising support trend line which prevented Litecoin from unwinding further beneath the 9-day moving average.

Litecoin Price Prediction: Litecoin Price Gets Ready for The Upside

The Litecoin price still remains neutral and it may need to rise above the upper boundary of the channel to remain bullish again.

Toward the upside, the first level of resistance lies at $190 while the potential resistance levels lie at $205, $210, and $215 respectively.

Moreover, if the sellers push the price beneath the 9-day and 21-day moving averages, traders may expect support to be located at $160 and $155. Beneath this, other critical supports can be located at $150, $145, and $140 respectively.
