The Relative Strength Index was nearer to the oversold zone than it was ever before in 2020. The sudden fall on the graph can be attributed to Bitcoin’s price fall, causing a lot of people to sell their stocks rather than buy more.

Since November 2019, the cryptocurrency had taken a massive hit in price and January was the first time that it saw sustained recovery. The immediate support in the long term was $36.69 with the trend line indicating upward movements.

The Chaikin Money Flow indicator was above the zero line for the first time in two months and that meant investors were beginning to come back into the Litecoin ecosystem. The higher capital inflow was also appreciated by many of the members in the community.

The Relative Strength Index was near the overbought zone after there was a massive increase in buying pressure over selling pressure. As more and more people accumulate Litecoin, the buying pressure will only increase.

The Awesome Oscillator had tapered towards January as the holiday season took some steam off the cryptocurrency market. Litecoin in the long term was treading through positive market pressure, albeit in small amounts.

Litecoin’s price can be expected to stagnate a bit more with hints of bullish essence. As long as the price of Bitcoin does not swing upwards significantly, Litecoin holders need not expect another price hike either.
