Litecoin Rebounds, Resumes Upward Correction and Targets $260 Price Level

Today, Buyers have pushed Litecoin to the high of $165 but it is retracing after rejection from the recent high. The current upward move has been made possible after LTC rebounded above the $140 support level.

Before the rebound, the crypto has been in range-bound movement between $135 and $150 after the January 11 downtrend. Today, the price has broken the range-bound movement as the coin moves up to retest the $185 resistance. 

The current upward move is facing resistance at $166. On the upside, LTC will soon retest or break the $185 resistance, if the $166 resistance is breached. However, the current range-bound movement may continue if the upward move becomes impossible. The altcoin is trading at $162.88 at the time of writing.
