Litecoin Technical Snapshot: 15% Below 200-Day Average

Litecoin (LTCUSD) last traded at 47.05, up 4.39% on the session.

Trend

The structure reads as below the 200-day average but with a mixed short-term structure. Price sits 6.2% above its 20-day SMA (44.303) and 6.04% above its 50-day SMA (44.3698), while remaining 15.05% under the 200-day SMA (55.3878). The two shorter averages are clustered close together, and price holds above both, but the wide gap to the long-term line reflects the broader downtrend still in place.

Momentum and Volatility

The 14-day RSI reads 62.6, which sits in neutral territory (between 30 and 70) while leaning toward the upper half of that band. On volatility, the 14-day ATR stands at 1.7088 in price terms, equal to about 3.63% of the current price — a gauge of the average daily range at present levels.

Within its recent range, price sits near the top of the last 20 sessions: the 20-day swing high is 47.79 and the 20-day swing low is 41.02. Looking back 60 days, the swing high is 54.61 and the swing low is 39.20. Against the annual picture, LTCUSD is 58.58% below its 52-week high of 113.59 and 20.03% above its 52-week low of 39.20.

Over longer horizons, performance shows a gain of 8.26% on the week and 11.73% on the month, set against a decline of 16.1% over the quarter and 55.99% over the past year.
