Litecoin Attempts to Jump the Hurdle at $64 High, a Rally to $73 Is Likely

Yesterday, the bulls surprisingly bought the dips as the coin rallied to a $62 high. Buyers have to jump over the hurdle at $64 high for the continuity of the upward move.

The upward move has been delayed for the past four days. On November 9, buyers attempted to push LTC above the $62 but were repelled. Subsequently, the coin slumped to a $57 low. After plunging to a recent low, the coin resumed a downward correction. 

Initially, all upward corrections were resisted below $60 high. Today buyers are in control as the coin rebounded to the previous highs. The crypto is trading at $61 at the time of writing. There are chances of a further upward movement of the coin. A strong bounce above $61 support will propel the price to break the resistance at $64. A breakout at the $64 resistance will accelerate price movement to the previous high. LTC price is expected to rally above $73. The upside momentum will be invalidated if the bears break the support at $58 and the coin slumps below $51 support.
