Litecoin faces selling pressure

Litecoin has made an exceptionally bullish move as price broke the $51 overhead resistance. The resistance has remained unbroken since April.

Before now the bulls have been battling to break the resistance at $46 for the past three weeks. After breaching the minor resistance levels the bulls made three unsuccessful attempts at the $46 resistance. In its last attempt at the resistance, price pulled back to $44 low and rebounded to break the $46 high and then retest the $51 overhead resistance. 

At the $51 high, price pulled back to $47 low to propel Litecoin to rebound. The momentum has broken above the overhead resistance as the market reached a high of $56. The price pulled back to $53 support because of the selling pressure at the recent high. In the meantime, the coin is trading below $53 after the retracement. On the upside, if the bulls sustain a price above $50, the bullish trend will continue. However, if the bears break below $50, LTC will fall to the previous price range of $39 and $50
