Neutral Outlook Near 104 Hurdle

Multi-timeframe analysis — LTC Analysis
D1: LTC Price at 101.61 trades above the 20-day EMA (99.13) but below the 50-day (104.08) and 200-day (104.15). This split says short-term bids are active, while the broader trend remains capped. Takeaway: buyers have an edge, yet the 104 area is a ceiling.
RSI (51.53): just over 50, hinting at mild bullish bias without conviction. This often precedes range-bound behavior unless momentum builds.
MACD: line (-2.64) sits above signal (-3.94) with a positive histogram (1.29). That shows improving upside momentum, but from a negative base — a recovery rather than a full trend.
Bollinger Bands: price hovers between the middle band (97.06) and the upper band (111.74). Room remains to the upside, yet mean reversion risk persists if buyers tire.
ATR (4.98): elevated daily volatility implies wider stops and flexible sizing. Swings can stretch into support and resistance before reversing.
Pivot: D1 PP at 102.50, R1 at 106.09, S1 at 98.01. Trading below PP suggests immediate resistance overhead; clearance would improve tone.
H1: Close at 101.62 sits above EMA20 (100.84), EMA50 (99.82), and EMA200 (96.71). Intraday structure is constructive, but momentum feels moderate.
H1 RSI (53.89): slightly bullish; H1 MACD positive with a small histogram (0.19), signaling steady but not explosive demand.
H1 Bands: mid at 100.85 with upper at 104.04 and lower at 97.66. Price leans upper-mid, implying continuation if dips hold. H1 Pivot: PP 101.91, R1 102.51, S1 101.02 — PP just overhead is the near-term hurdle.
M15: Close 101.62 above EMA20 (101.46), EMA50 (100.79), and EMA200 (99.68). Micro trend tilts up, though momentum feels tentative.
M15 RSI (52.46) and MACD (positive histogram 0.07) back a gentle bullish bias. M15 Pivot: PP 101.52, R1 101.73, S1 101.41 — a tight range where quick flips can occur.
Synthesis: D1 is neutral while H1 and M15 lean bullish. Overall structure is cautiously constructive, but the 104.00–104.15 zone could decide the next leg.
