Lack of buying power compelled Litecoin to a sideways move

Litecoin (LTC) price is in a downward correction. Today, the crypto turns after reaching the high of $193. With this rejection, the market is likely to decline to $170 low.

Daily, buyers have been retesting the resistance at $200 to break it. As a result, Litecoin's recovery has been threatened at the $200 resistance zone. Buyers have failed to sustain above the resistance zone. 

Lack of buying power by the bulls has compelled the altcoin to a sideways move. Presently, LTC/USD is range-bound between $160 and $200. On the downside, if the price breaks below $160 support, the market will decline to the previous low at $118. On the other hand, if buyers overcome the resistance at $200, the crypto will rally to $240 high. In the interim, LTC is in a downward move below the resistance zone.
