LTC Price 2.5% Away From Major Breakout
Over the past four months, the Litecoin price prediction has traded sideways, struggling to surpass $77 resistance. An analysis of the daily chart shows this consolidation hovers above the bottom support trendline of a long-coming triangle pattern.
Theoretically, the pattern drives a temporary consolidation for the prevailing trend to regain its momentum. With the chart pattern intact, the Litecoin price is poised to rebound within the two trend lines before offering a deceive breakout.
Amid the Canary Capital filing for an LTC ETF, the coin price rallied to $75.26, marking a 21.5% growth over the past two weeks. A bullish recovery backed by a notable spike indicates a higher potential to breach the overhead resistance of $77.
A successful flip of this resistance into support will bolster a 34% rally to challenge the triangle resistance trendline at $103.
The Litecoin price trading above the daily exponential moving average (20, 50, 100, and 200) recuperates the bullish narrative in LTC’s midterm term.

On the contrary, if the LTC price fails to break the $77 breakout, the sellers could delay the above bullish thesis and drive a prolonged consolidation.
