Litecoin Price Forecast: LTC eyes breakout above $105 as bullish momentum builds

Litecoin (LTC) price is showing signs of renewed strength on Tuesday, trading near $105 as bullish momentum builds across the market. On-chain and derivatives data indicate growing investor confidence, with increasing trading volumes, positive funding rates, and accumulation by large holders. The technical outlook supports further gains as momentum indicators are gaining traction.

Litecoin’s on-chain and derivatives data suggest further gains

Santiment data indicate that the Litecoin ecosystem’s trading volume (the aggregate trading volume generated by all exchange applications on the chain) reached $2.03 billion on Sunday, the highest level since mid-October and stands at around $1.46 on Tuesday. This volume rise indicates a surge in traders’ interest and liquidity in Litecoin, boosting its bullish outlook.

CoinGlass’s OI-Weighted Funding Rate data shows that the number of traders betting that the price of Litecoin will slide further is lower than that anticipating a price increase. The metric has flipped to a positive rate and currently reads 0.0055%, indicating that longs are paying shorts and suggesting bullish sentiment among traders.

CryptoQuant futures market data suggest a positive outlook, as LTC shows large whale orders and buy dominance, signaling a potential recovery ahead.

Litecoin Price Forecast: LTC momentum indicators gaining traction

Litecoin price surged more than 10% last week, closing above key resistance levels at $96.30 and 50-day EMA at $101.45. At the time of writing on Tuesday, LTC hovers around $105.90, finding support around its 50-day EMA.

If the 50-day EMA at $101.45 continues to hold as support, it could extend the rally toward the October 6 high at $135.99.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart reads 56, above the neutral level of 50, indicating bullish momentum gaining traction. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) showed a bullish crossover last week, which remains intact, suggesting the continuation of an upward trend.

On the other hand, if LTC faces a correction and closes below the 50-day EMA at $101.45, it could extend the decline toward the weekly support at $96.30.
