Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – October 4th, 2021

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to move through the $171 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $175 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break out from Sunday’s high $174.99.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap the upside.

In the event of another breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at the 23.6% FIB of $178 and the second major resistance level at $180.

Failure to move through the $171 pivot would bring the first major support level at $166 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$160. The second major support level at $161 should limit the downside.
