Litecoin will develop a trend when the moving average lines are broken

The cryptocurrency is now trading above the 21-day line but below the 50-day line, which means that the LTC price will move between the moving averages. 

Long-term forecast for the Litecoin price: Bullish

Litecoin will develop a trend when the moving average lines are broken. Today, LTC/USD is trading at $128 at the time of writing.

However, price volatility will continue if the bullish scenario is invalidated.
