Over the past 24 hours, LTC has decreased by 2.8%, and the candlestick charts reflect a noticeable downward movement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As shown in the chart he referenced, LTC started the day around $89.00 but faced a sharp decline, dropping to $87.00 before managing a brief <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/litecoin\/litecoin-uphill-battle-strong-on-chain-resistance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">recovery<\/a> to $88.50. However, the price has since fallen again to $84, indicating sustained selling pressure in the short term.<\/p>\n<h2>Momentum Fades: RSI Drifts Toward Oversold Territory<\/h2>\n<p>According to Grayhoood, current technical indicators suggest that Litecoin may face further downside, with multiple metrics aligning to support a bearish short-term outlook. One of the primary indicators in focus is the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which appears to be drifting toward oversold territory.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While such a move could hint at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/litecoin\/litecoin-trading-activity-increases-over-the-past-month-potential-ltc-etf-draws-speculation\/\">potential<\/a> bounce, Grayhoood cautions that it also signals bearish sentiment in the market. Beyond the RSI, momentum oscillators such as the Stochastic indicator and the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) are also painting a gloomy picture.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-767200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Litecoin-chart-from-Grayhoood.jpg?w=307&amp;resize=307%2C512\" alt=\"Litecoin\" width=\"307\" height=\"512\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/p>\n<p>These tools are typically used to gauge market <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/litecoin\/litecoin-comeback-bullish-reversal-sets-the-stage-for-76-85-target\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">reversals<\/a> and the strength of ongoing trends. In this case, both are tilting toward further downward momentum if no strong <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/litecoin\/litecoin-exodus-retail-investors-why-bullish\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">bullish<\/a> catalyst appears, especially as prices struggle to hold above the $87 support level.<\/p>\n<h2>Short-Term Declines Contrast with Yearly Gains in LTC\u2019s Moving Averages<\/h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/litecoin\/analyst-litecoin-price-at-84\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">analyst<\/a> further highlighted a mixed outlook from Litecoin\u2019s moving averages, suggesting a market caught between short-term weakness and long-term potential. In the near term, shorter-duration averages are flashing strong sell signals. These are driven by LTC\u2019s recent negative performance, with a -9.0% drop over the past week and a -12.5% decline over the last two weeks, painting a clear picture of growing bearish <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/litecoin-will-it-sustain-above-60\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">momentum<\/a> and sustained selling pressure.<\/p>\n<p>However, the longer-term moving averages tell a different story. Despite recent setbacks, Litecoin has posted a 2.3% gain over the past year, which keeps the long-term trend technically bullish. This divergence suggests that while short-term traders may be responding to immediate price volatility and weakness, long-term investors could still see value in the asset, especially if broader market conditions stabilize or improve.<\/p>\n<p>That said, the broader market sentiment currently leans <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/litecoin-stuck-in-a-rut-bullish-or-bearish\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">bearish<\/a>, weighed down by Litecoin\u2019s inability to maintain key support levels amid recent price volatility. Even with long-term growth providing a degree of optimism, the prevailing trend is defined by downward pressure and uncertainty. Until short-term indicators begin to align with the long-term bullish structure, Litecoin may continue to face a challenging environment.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/OiRJldAp\/\" alt=\"Litecoin\" width=\"2084\" height=\"1242\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grayhoood, a crypto trader, said on X that Litecoin is currently experiencing a bearish trend, emphasizing the ongoing weakness in price action.
