Litecoin price prediction: What to expect?

In his Litecoin price prediction, analyst Vince Prince has identified the coin to have formed a descending channel formation. A coherent wave count can also be seen to have been formed by Litecoin. The coin has successfully completed the waves A to D. after completing the wave D at $132, Litecoin appears to be moving close to the upper boundary of the ascending channel formation, most likely to retest the boundary as resistance.

The wave E lies at $112 and with the convergence of the 135 EMA – in red – and the second ascending trend line at the wave E, it will be serving as a breakout origin cluster. The cluster is expected to push Litecoin towards the upper boundary of the ascending channel formation and retest it. The first ascending trend line can also act as support for Litecoin to help it break out of the channel. If Litecoin breaks out of the channel then that will be a confirmation of the final bull flag. Litecoin can be expected to rise along the second ascending trend line and higher potential targets can be unlocked.
