Date: Wed, February 19, 2025 | 11:15 AM GMT

The cryptocurrency market is showing signs of recovery today after experiencing a sharp decline yesterday. This comes as Bitcoin’s dominance cools down from its 24-hour high of 61.50% to 61.07%, allowing altcoins to regain strength.

One of the standout performers is Litecoin (LTC), which has surged 9% today with a key breakout and maintains strong momentum with 16% weekly gains amid growing speculation about a potential Litecoin spot ETF approval.

Key Breakout

On the daily chart, the recent strong recovery from the February 3 low of $80, supported by the 200-day and 100-day moving averages (MAs), has helped LTC break above key resistance of bull flag structure.

The price currently trading at $136 and now making a retest for confirmation. A successful bounce from this level could pave the way for further upside.

If LTC manages to hold above this breakout level and clear the red-shaded resistance zone, it could target the next resistance levels at $154 and $168, representing a 22% rally from current levels. A decisive break above these zones would set the stage for a potential run toward $200 in the coming weeks.

The MACD indicator is turning positive, showing growing bullish strength. The MACD line has crossed above the signal line, which historically indicates a strong buying opportunity.

Final Thoughts

Litecoin’s breakout above key resistance is a significant technical event, signaling a potential continuation of the recent rally. With ETF speculation, bullish technicals, and increasing volume, LTC could be poised for further gains. However, a confirmed retest of the breakout level will be crucial in determining whether the uptrend holds.
