Don't listen to me, I have no idea what i'm doing, unless of course you find something valuable within the content of the chart.

I'll save the haters the trouble, "btc_joe you have been wrong about litecoin for a year, why you post this shit" ...again, its just a chart, with information about price action, maybe that information tells you something or maybe it doesn't.

In a world where bitcoin gets bigger and bigger (and thus less and less likely to make *any consensus changes whether it be a hard fork or segwit, etc), ask yourself, does litecoin deserve a place in the market? I certainly have my opinion.

Not to mention, if it gets the lightning network before bitcoin...are you excited about this technology? I certainly am.

Bought back in with some of the ltc I had sold last week at .00325...target 1 (low .003xx's) will probably still come but glad to buy back in at lower prices. When ever this does start it will be too fast to catch so I dont want to worry about it. If target 2 seems likely to me I will probably sell some again. Gluck.

Also that fairly pronounced bull div and potential triangle break out on the 1d (RSI): tradingview.com/v/YDRcnyir/ LTCUSD indicators looking good on the 1d, 12h, 6h, 4h, as price is flirting with resistance. Would rather sleep in peace : )

Nice pull back on both ltc/usd, and ltc/btc as bitcoin shot up. IMO bitcoin should cool down soon. There is a very nice cup and handle forming on ltc/usd *if, and I stress *if, $4.07 or so can hold: imgur.com/a/mHZYB keep an eye on this, and bitcoin.
Uwaga
Support has held well from the 50 fib, and its starting to look like this may be a real nice cup and handle formation: imgur.com/a/bGy0D This should start to rise soon, and if it can break the high of $4.5, you will see FOMO start to really kick in. But, one step at a time : )

Just another update/view of the weekly since last week's screen shot. Looking great! As you can see the price rallied to put in a healthy green candle with a nice body. This is really starting to show the beginnings of true trend reversal. Stoch on the way up now. MACD histogram just went positive. And most importantly, RSI broke out of a LONG bear trend which has been in tact since the last ltc bull market (halving pump). That is a verrrrry good sign. And of course, as if you hadn't heard things are heating up in the coup attempt on bitcoin, BU FUD. F2 pool signalling for segwit on the way. There literally could not be a more bullish environment for ltc. Stay tuned.

Just an interesting fib time zone I thought I would share...has pretty much predicted every rally so far, this time around we started a bit earlier. Can take it with a grain of salt but seems to confirm this rally will be like past ones--parabolic and fast. Maybe the top is within the next 2-4-6 weeks? We shall see. snapshot
Uwaga
Litecoin is the talk of the town. We are now consistently seeing 300 out of every 500 blocks signaling for segwit (over 60%) ...we need 75%...this is inevitable. We will get there. Next stop is the 200 MA on the weekly around .012-.013:

reddit.com/r/litecoin/comments/63cgfc/my_letter_to_chinese_miners_and_pool_operators_on/

This is the best news Litecoin has gotten since inception, in addition to the LN, ltc can lead the way on Confidential Transactions eventually as well. And miners will be contributing to development. Bitcoin will always have trouble coming to consensus on new technologies, and litecoin (being smaller and easier to get things passed on) can always take the lead and experiment, this is why the fact that its a "copy and paste" is actually a good thing.

While it's naive to think there will not be insane volatility, and inevitably a big dump that will follow the huge pump (just getting started)...Litecoin is now looking like a coin that has established a very bright future for itself.
Uwaga
69% ...
Uwaga
This is an interesting trendline to watch on the weekly chart:
snapshot

Just thinking out loud here…when we pass the threshold this will pump hard. There will likely be a pull back, which will likely provide a nice trade opportunity in the midst of this uptrend.

Zooming into the 1d chart, here is an idea to watch for:
snapshot

Watch your fibs, your trendlines, your indicators. Just a loose plan for the short term : )
Uwaga
After seeing the huge volume on GDAX last night--on twitter Brian Armstrong confirmed with Charlie Lee that Litecoin will finally be added for payments, great news. I saw many proclaiming ltc/btc was a great short b/c of the ASIC boost news and inevitability of segwit on btc through a UASF...this to me, was some really strange backwards logic. The inevitability of segwit on btc in my view only makes live testing with an attackable bounty on ltc even *all the more valuable. I stressed to these people that shorting ltc was missing the forest for the trees, mindset should still be btfd mode not short the pop. Great future ahead. Anyway, .01 has held for now, and a small correction was healthy. I do forsee at some poitn a big correction before going higher but I don't think we are there yet, so the last update may prove to be prescient. So, at what point do all the shorters from last night start to close?' : ) I would say they are already getting nervous. And when we break .0112 we should get a vicious cycle of short closing, people going long.
Uwaga
Not to mention, if a UASF is coming to bitcoin, while that may be good in the long term (and price seems to have reacted well), the actual event to me would represent uncertainty, so that could be all the more reason for btc to drop in the short term. But we'll see about that one, regardless, feeling great about ltc.
Uwaga
snapshot .01 broke. and some bearish divergence, possible we may head back to support in the grey box to let indicators cool down. We are going higher, the question is how long it takes.
Uwaga
UGH Wang Chung of F2 pool made a comment about withdrawing support for segwit, some of these miners, Charlie and ltc devs communicating with him. Sheesh. Is this guy serious?
Uwaga
No guarantees in the short term here, be careful.
Uwaga
Grey box is first support, if there is panic, we could see the bottom of the channel which would be around .0062-.0064 depending on when we got there.
Uwaga
snapshot
Uwaga
Charlie Lee "I talked to Wang Chun and he will continue to signal for SegWit. Everyone's been under a lot of stress. So let's all taek a deep breath."
Uwaga
As mentioned in the comments, that may be all, or we could go to the grey box before going higher. Short term moves are always tougher to predict. Do you. 1d candle still seems it will close bearish but then again we had a scare that was now cleared up. Still astonished at how unprofessional these guys are but so long as segwit is coming to ltc, we are good IMO. Prohashing has also apparently committed to segwit as well. Coinbase adding Litecoin. Volume picking up on GDAX. Great things ahead for litecoin.
Uwaga
Lower time frames starting to look okay:
snapshot
Uwaga
Bitcoin slowing down, will it break down from its rising wedge, or will it go parabolic? Litecoin touched down in the grey box for what could prove to be a higher low that would make for some nice hidden divergence on the 4h (shown on ltc/btc here, but similar chart for ltc/usd: snapshot
So it looks to me like either btc continues on up (in which case ltc/btc may need to test the the bottom of the channel)...or btc reverses here, and we continue on up in both ltc/usd and ltc/btc. I'm betting on the former, but if it looks like btc going to break out, i may take a nice interim trade to the bottom of the channel and increase my ltc count.
Uwaga
Also, as pointed out from u/atombomb in DM...there is potential a 5 wave EW pattern here:
snapshot
So if we go up a bit but you start to see some weakness, that could be another route to the bottom of the channel. Just something to be aware of.
Uwaga
"i'm betting on the former" excuse me, the *latter !

Looking good for now:

Been updating both charts so forgot to update this one, as I just added to my other litecoin chart, to me it looks like LTC/USD wants $7-$8:
snapshot We'll see. But barring some change of the situation it's starting to look like segwit will not activate over this period as Jihan is desperately insecure and hell bent on blocking it. It will happen one way or another eventually, even if it takes a UASF, but maybe the moon get's put on hold for a while? Might be healthier for this rally anyway to let indicators reset. Stay tuned.
Uwaga
Looks like the triangle is about to break: snapshot
Uwaga
Target mentioned earlier was hit:
snapshot
I had a bunch of orders filled on it. Tough to say if we are out of the woods yet. On the plus side hash rate from non segwit pools is dying down, but still, seems unlikely we will get activated during this two week period barring Jihan/Wang decide to let it happen. I believe Charlie is supposed to meet with them in June, so maybe things cool down until then? Then either make some sort of a deal or if not we go ahead with the UASF. Or maybe things will change quicker, who knows, stay tuned. I have my popcorn ready.
Uwaga
Ltc/usd looks like its about to break resistance, back in all coin for now. Great trade. Can always sell again later.

From now on I will only update this idea (realizing there were some updates on my other published idea that I forgot to add here)

Uwaga
Well, orders at .00113 were hit, and even had a few down to .011 as well, so that worked out nicely. I did think we would head lower, but this recent price action looks promising snapshot Back in all coin for now, profitable trade.
Uwaga
hodling tight for now...here is what I'm keeping an eye on:
snapshot
Will the 1d RSI channel hold? Or will we fall out of the channel and confirm bearish divergence on both the MACD and RSI. Time will tell.
Uwaga
That may have been just a nice shake out of weak hands. Bull pennant forming:
snapshot
We'll see. If not RSI will fall out of channel on the 1d and there will be a nice trade to the downside, but i'll believe it when I see it. Stay tuned.

Finally broke down...always good to be patient and not panic if the market moves against you...we can never predict exactly how things will go.
Uwaga
Something important to be aware of.

To me it looks like $12 or so is likely, going down to the dotted trendline would create a nice hidden bull:
snapshot

Now, that said, as I mentioned .0099 on ltc/btc seems likely and possibly even the 100 MA (around .0082 or so), I am very bullish on bitcoin. It can go as high as $1750 possibly as soon as this week who knows:
snapshot

If you take $12 and divide it by $1750 you get around .00686 ...now that doesn't mean we will go that low, but anything is possible in ltc/btc, it has a history of going lower than people think, even directly before an epic run or in the midst of it. So, the question to me is, how soon to we get to $12? That is something to keep an eye on, and might coincide with the bottom in ltc/btc.

This is how I am thinking about things and planning accordingly. There is tons of uber bullish new for ltc, this is eventually going higher, so don't panic no matter how low it goes, well at least i wont be, I will take advantage. Good luck.
Uwaga
Welp, price going against me for now thats for sure, but sticking with this for now. Something doesn't feel right with bitcoin about to go insanely parabolic, but absolutely could be wrong, and watching eagerly. Just would like to see a bit more before changing my mind, would rather take a bigger loss on the trade and be correct about the market, would be glad to take that loss if ltc is truly about to go nuts as well, which could very well be the case. Of course if we got some new coinbase or other that would do it for me also. Gluck, do you.
Uwaga
18.2 or so is the 1.618 extensin, will ltc/usd cool down around there as bitcoin goes parabolic and get shut down at the rsi channel? Or will it join the party? That's what i'm watching

Uwaga
In case you hadn't heard Coinbase adds support for Litecoin...took a nice loss on that one oh well, can't win em all. To the moon.
Uwaga
Such mewn much wow
Uwaga
Litecoin has been on an absolute tear these last two months. I am a huge believer in this coin and believe it has a truly bright future ahead, but looking at the short term, it is time to start thinking about where to take some profits on this trade.

Personally, since I am a huge believer,I have a certain amount of ltc which I will keep for the long term, but I also have had a very big position in this coin and have always intended on taking some profits in bitcoin off the table. This way, I lock in huge gains in terms of how much bitcoin I have gained for the risk I put in, and then I can win no matter what as I still will have a good amount of skin in the game as well.

If you take a look at the original chart and press play, you will see 3 main targets, yellow orange and red, they are still good targets. I think yellow is very likely, and there is a good amount of resistance there. Will we blast straight through and hit orange and eventually red as the fractal shows? We certainly could, but it would also not be out of the question that we get to yellow, and sellers step in and we eventually get shut down by the descending trendline drawn from the last two major highs. Such a scenario would create a nice bearish divergence on the RSI, and possibly MACD as well.

snapshot

On the other hand, MACD has broken the trendline from the last two previous highs, so this would suggest we will in fact visit the red zone in price and possibly higher as MACD heads up to test old highs.

Just some things to consider. And to be clear, the game has changed for ltc, I could not be more bullish on it long term, I really think breaking ath's in both $ and btc terms is inevitable, but this is more of a risk management thing for me personally. We could top in the previously mentioned areas and take 3-6 months off cool down before going higher, who knows, if that were the case I would want to have had some profits locked in. If that makes any sense. Anyway, that is my approach/thinking as of now, gluck to all.

Also a potential messy H + S on lower time frames. Are we going to $30 or $20?

So is wave 4 of 5 complete?
Uwaga
Segwit activates in a mere hours...the red dotted fibs of the overall downtrend, namely the .5 and .618 are good targets. if we were to take out the past high (.618)...then that would cancel the bearish divergence on the ltc/btc weekly chart, and then the red target (full retrace) starts to look like a reality. Good luck. snapshot
Uwaga
Looking at LTC/USD...at the moment, it does look sorta bearish, but then again, bitcoin has been dropping as well. So the way I see it, as long as we don't fall out of the steeper channel for too long, and really, the 2.618 fib holds, I think ltc/btc will be okay to start making new highs again soon enough, and the previous update and targets are still valid. Stay tuned.
snapshot
Uwaga
...price so far has bounced perfectly off the bottom of that channel (on ltc/usd) and we also now have some more BU FUD which is good for the now officially segwit enabled litecoin:
twitter.com/lopp/status/862398566244941827
Uwaga
As I mentioned in the last chart update, it looked like we would fall out of the channel but that as long as the 2.618 held, and we didn't stay out of the channel too long, it would be okay. Well we fell out, there was a good trade opportunity there which I was able to take advantage of with (ltc/btc), would have mentioned it here but it was too quick.

And now here we are, the price bounced very nicely off the 2.618, and managed to spring right back into the channel. This is a very good sign, as long as the channel continues to hold, price should be okay to to start making new highs again and reach the previously mentioned targets on ltc/btc.

Litecoin looks to be in a similar position to bitcoin here. There is potentially some nice hidden bullish divergence, but it has to get going back up and fast (more so than bitcoin). It is a long way from the channel now, it could shoot right back up into it of course, but it needs to get going, otherwise there is room to continue on down for a big drop.

If you followed the above published chart and updates, you did well. I had buy orders from .013 down to .012. As i indicated in the last update (in the above chart), there were great prospects for a reversal when we hit .012, and now we have bounced strongly, and created a bullish engulfing on the daily ltc/usd chart, and have an inverse H + S in the works on the 1h/2h for both ltc/usd and ltc/btc:
