It coincides with the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $49.94 high to $44.58 low. Litecoin Price A successful break above the $48.00 resistance could spark a fresh run towards the $50.00 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls is near the $52.50 level. In the mentioned case, bitcoin could also gain traction above the $9,740 and $9,800 resistance levels.
