There was a minor dip below the $105.00 level. The price even traded below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $78.88 swing low to $112.76 high. However, the price is finding a strong support near the $100.00 level.
The next major support is near the $95.00 zone. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $78.88 swing low to $112.76 high. On the upside, the $110.00 level is a key hurdle. A close above the $110.00 level may possibly set the pace for a move towards the $125.00 and $130.00 levels.
Dips Supported in LTC?
There could be limited downsides in litecoin below the $100.00 level. The first major support is forming near the $95.00 level.
Any further losses may perhaps send the price towards the $90.00 support in the coming sessions. The next major support is near the $92.00 zone.
