Litecoin Trades Above $40; Gains Support from the Imminent Moving Averages

Litecoin (LTC) rebounds from the 90-day low price as it currently trades around $40 after having hit $42 in the past two days. LTC/USD is consolidating quite well as compared to many other altcoins, as it has not yet touched the 52-week low price in the previous week when the whole crypto market crashed. The king of the market—Bitcoin price also slides down to $7,200 after hitting $7,600 on the previous trading day.

Irrespective of the moderate bearishness and selling pressure, Litecoin’s current trading price is rightly supported by the 9-day and most interestingly 100-day moving average. Alongside this, the market cap of LTC also has been showing a decline, and the $42 price area is the major resistance.
