Litecoin rebounded above the $54 to reach a high of $58

Litecoin range bound movement has continued unabated because buyers failed to break the $60 resistance. About 24 hours ago, LTC rebounded above the $54 to reach a high of $58.

Sellers have earlier pushed the price to $54 to sink the altcoin but buyers recovered immediately. LTC has fallen to the range-bound zone as buyers and sellers continue their price tussle. The current price range will be terminated if LTC rebounded above $56 support. 

The broken $60 resistance will give free passage for the price to rally above the $65 high. The momentum will continue to reach the target price of $68. Nonetheless, the current range may persist, if the $60 resistance remains unbroken. LTC is still trading at $56 at the time of writing.

For two weeks, the price action has remained the same. From the August 1 uptrend, a red candle body tested the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level. The candlestick indicates that the price will rise and reach the 72 extension level or $68 high. At that level, the market will now reverse to 0.786 or 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level where it originated.
