Litecoin Smashes Through Resistance – $140 Target Now in Play as Bulls Charge

Litecoin just bulldozed its descending trendline like a crypto wrecking ball. The breakout signals potential fireworks ahead.

Price Targets Activated

Traders are now eyeing the $140 level as the next logical battleground. If momentum holds, LTC could retest this zone within weeks—assuming Bitcoin doesn't throw one of its classic tantrums.

Market Psychology Flip

The resistance break transforms previous sell-pressure into potential support. Classic technical playbook—though as any seasoned trader knows, crypto follows the textbook right up until it sets the damn thing on fire.

Closing Shot

While Wall Street hedgies debate 'digital gold' over martinis, Litecoin keeps doing the actual work—processing transactions faster than a VC can say 'narrative shift'. $140 or bust.

Historically, Litecoin has a pattern of compressing for weeks and then breaking out in fast, impulsive moves. That kind of behavior could repeat, especially with macro tailwinds building. There’s growing anticipation around a Litecoin spot ETF, which is now widely expected to be approved later this year. If that comes through, institutional flows could give the price the fuel it needs for a broader move.

The downtrend that’s been in place since early 2025 is finally starting to crack. The falling resistance line that had been holding Litecoin back has now been broken, and that’s often the first sign that things are beginning to shift. 

What’s more important is that trading volume has picked up past 109K, which means buyers aren’t just testing the waters; they’re actually showing up with intent.

Support-wise, the area between $87 and $90 now acts as the first defense. A successful retest here WOULD strengthen the bullish case. If that fails, the next support lies near $70.55, with a deeper floor in the $50–$60 range, though such a drop would likely need a broader market correction to play out.

Momentum is picking up, but it’s not overheated. Buyers are stepping in, and you can see that in the RSI, it’s climbing, but still has room before it gets anywhere NEAR overbought. 

The MACD has also turned positive, which backs up the idea that upward pressure is building. The weekly chart is starting to look solid. 

A Golden Cross is in the works, that’s when the short-term trend flips above the long-term one, and it usually marks the start of a stronger, more sustained MOVE up.

Sentiment-wise, the mood feels quietly optimistic. Funding rates are still a bit negative, which means some traders are betting against the price, but if it keeps climbing, those shorts could get caught offside, leading to a possible squeeze. 

But that’s not necessarily bad; it can work as fuel if the price keeps climbing and forces short-sellers to exit. With Bitcoin staying steady and altcoins starting to wake up, Litecoin looks well-positioned to catch the next wave, assuming momentum holds.

$101.63 is the immediate battleground. Clear that with conviction, and Litecoin could be on its way to $140, then possibly $150–$180. But this isn’t the time to chase blindly.
