More so, daily volume reached 1.38 million LTC, confirming strong momentum behind the breakout. However, failure to break the 150-SMA could lead to a brief pullback.
The 50-SMA at $88.15 and 100-SMA at $87.14 offer layered support for short-term buyers. If Bitcoin consolidates below $113,000, Litecoin could attract buyers, potentially driving prices towards the $100 psychological target, aligning with LTC’s highs from April 2025.
