Litecoin remains bullish over the short-term, with price holding above the LTC / USD pair’s 200-period moving average on the four-hour time frame.
However, the Ichimoku indicator on the four-hour time frame is showing that the cryptocurrency is testing towards key technical support from the Ichimoku cloud after buyers once again failed to move price above the $100.00 resistance level.
Other technical indicators on the four-hour time frame have turned bearish and signal further near-term losses.
