According to the one-hour chart of Litecoin, the value has been rising within an ascending channel, however, the price has been witnessing a strong push and pull from the traders, as the rise and fall of the value within $81.89 and $84.21 continued.
Reasoning
Given this low momentum in the market, there could not be a prominent trend. The sudden boost in price had earlier pushed the value way past the resistances, but as correction set it, LTC price was once again stuck between the aforementioned range.
Currently, the coin was moving sideways, as the buying and the selling pressures have been evening each other out. This was indicated in the Relative Strength Index. The RSI has been in the equilibrium territory. There has been a rise in selling pressure however, the value of LTC may not dip beyond its immediate support.
Whereas, the low momentum was also indicated by the Awesome Oscillator. The pars had become short and were red, indicating the selling pressure. This was a signal of the market being stagnated.
Conclusion
The LTC market has been moving within the same range for a long time. The current price has been noting a selling pressure which was minimal. There was only a little momentum in the market and the chances of a price swing appeared low.
