  • Litecoin bulls are ready to defend the 1.65% gain on the day in a bid to stays above $60.
  • The technical picture remains strongly positive as the RSI enters the overbought territory.

Litecoin is in a bullish phase after recovering from the 50’s range. The ongoing gains, although shallow have been able to place LTC in a trajectory above the trendline support. Litecoin is teetering above the Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) on the four-hour chart.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) in the same range, is brushing shoulders with the overbought (70). Further correction north will revive gains towards 70 but retreat from the same level will signal a reversal.
