Litecoin bulls could not penetrate the $43 resistance

Litecoin has made an impressive move to the high of $46 after a strong bounce on July 21. Buyers have already retested this price level on July 8 in the first uptrend.

Later, the coin dropped to a low of $41. The price corrected upward but reached a high of $43. The bulls could not penetrate the $43 resistance as the coin was compelled to a range-bound movement below the resistance.  

After six days of range-bound movement below the resistance, LTC rebounded above $42 support to break the $43 resistance. The price rose and reached a $44 high. There was a pullback to $43 support. Litecoin rebounded again after the pullback as price broke the $44 resistance. The momentum extended to retest the $46 high. On the upside, if the bulls break the $46 resistance, LTC will rally above the $51 overhead resistance. The crypto will be compelled to range-bound movement between $44 and $46 if the $46 resistance remains unbroken.

Litecoin indicator analysis 

The price is now above the EMAs which suggests a further upward move into the previous highs. The market is now in a bullish movement as LTC is above 50% range of the daily stochastic. The EMAs are sloping horizontally as the price was earlier in a downtrend.
