Biggest Movers: LTC Climbs to 10-Day High on Monday

Litecoin (LTC) was one of the notable gainers on Monday, as the token raced to a ten-day high.


LTC/USD rose to a high of $70.83 to start the week, which comes less than a day after hitting a low of $65.54.


Today’s surge has taken litecoin to its highest point since December 16, and closer to a key resistance level of $72.00. LTC/USD – Daily Chart


As can be seen from the chart, Monday’s move comes as the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) rose above its own ceiling at 45.00.


The index is currently tracking at 51.79, with the next visible point of support at the 54.00 level.


Should the RSI reach this point, it is highly likely that prices will also collide with a ceiling of $72.00. XRP


XRP, formerly ripple, also moved higher to start the week, as the token collided with a key resistance point.


Following a low of $0.3447, XRP/USD hit a high of $0.356 earlier in today’s session, which is also a recent price ceiling.

Ultimately, should this trend continue, XRP could continue to move towards the $0.4000 mark.
