LTC (https://trade.kucoin.com/LTC-BTC) price is mooning along with other altcoins.

Can you give me some of your TA for LTC? 

hold is a good choice for now, because the ATH price for LTC is $ 375.29 (Dec 19, 2017) and currently the price of LTC is $ 161.38, so of course if the price of LTC reaches its ATH price then you will get a big profit, because for now I see that several cryptocurrency have reached their ATH price or even make a new ATH price (such as BTC, ETH, DOT, BNB, DOGE), so there is a big opportunity for the price of LTC to reach its ATH price too and even make a new ATH price, therefore HOLD is the right choice for LTC at this time.

I agree with the top poster. For right now it's all about holding, and not that trading is bad but I wouldn't want to lose any dime due to a bad decision. LTC has done about 9.7% up trade as @ now just from today's movement and I strongly believe most Alts will do their previous ATH and if you don't see yourself as a good trader, I suggest you HODL till you get a comfortable level of profit  ;)

Trading Litecoin paired with Bitcoin is not very profitable in my opinion. I think that litecoin will show good growth over a distance in dollar equivalent, to increase the amount of your bitcoins see other pairs.

Needs to break $200 first. Yes it's mooning and so are the rest of the altcoins, but LTC have a lot of mental barriers to overcome before we can say that it is on a bull run. As I mentioned, it needs to pass $200 because this seems to be the biggest hurdle in front of LTC. If it will have a break out run then I will say that it will continue and go to $250.

LTC is mooning but it's also loosing a lot in bitcoin and ethereum pairs. When you are holding bitcoin or ethereum and you could get more than it. LTC is good to be used for long term portfolios.
Just keep your LTC if bitcoin is still increasing a lot. When bitcoin will increase and litecoin will get impact from the bullish trend that happened with bitcoin.
It may be late but litecoin will increase after bitcoin has done with its pump.

if my advice is better you sell your LTC when you have made a profit and then you invest in Ethereum or Polkadot, because in my opinion it's more profitable than investing in LTC and of course if you invest in Ethereum and Polkadot, then you will definitely get a lot of profit quickly than you invest in LTC, because Ethereum and Polkadot are the best altcoin for now.

If anyone want to hodl LTC , than go for USDT pair or any stablecoin pair, not in BTC pair. Reason is just simple, LTC price movement in BTC pair isn't that much bullish if we compare to previous alt season and it's only on downtrend. So, enjoy alt season of LTC ( as long as hype is going on) on USDT pair, not in BTC, IMHO.

Don't rely too much on TA right now. Surprises are happening both in Bitcoin and altcoins.

I am in favor of hodling LTC. The price of LTC at $161 is still very low. It is still considered an undervalued altcoin. LTC is Bitcoin's bronze so I think the future of LTC is great. It will be making a new ATH a few months from now.

With the great help of Bitcoin's price increase LTC might reach $200 days or weeks from now.

LTC will be pumped hard in case of next btc run. I will hodl it

It is unnoticed because there's no current pump to its coin. The one that's taking attention is Ethereum and Binance Coin. But for Litecoin, needs to step up first before having a probable run again. It's hard to give an analysis on this coin if almost everything is surprisingly going up and relying on bitcoin.

Yes, it's still quite inexpensive if you really are looking to the market. There's still more for Litecoin but for those who are holding it already, you need to be patient.

Litecoin is a chaser and this is always what you need to understand. It has a history of coming behind etheruem and playing closely to etheruem but gets cut in the middle to retrace backward. However this is still a good move as it is yet to touch ATH. Hodling for a while won't be too much risk because bitcoin and etheruem are still doing up.

On the weekly time frame litecoin price has met a correction, at least there are three correction candles but now it will be different with the current candle that will be formed. The candle that will be formed at this week will be bullish engulfing candle which mean the correction is over and the bullish trade will continue.

Let say, if the price movement forming an ABCD pattern then the next price that will be reached is $240. I use weekly candle and it will be long term prediction. Also, that is based on technical analyst only, if the situation can continue, I mean the market sentiment is not change. It will be different if something bad happen, especially in the fundamental factor.

I always advice people to hold Litecoin with Bitcoin, for me as long as Bitcoin is doing well, Litecoin price will catch up with it, there are two Altcoins that will not die Litecoin and Doge, they will continue to be in top 100 Market cap because most people holding them are OG's and will continue to protect their investment unlike most of these Altcoins out there

I already have 15% profit from LTC at the moment and my strategy right now is hold and take profit if its reach minimum 30% profit.
But im not believe that LTC will have any big pump like ETH or BTC this time, so i will move to another Coin after the trade reach my target.

It will go up in corellation to all other alts. Once alt season hits, it'll again moon, probably over $300, but then after it's over, expect another 95% fall.
History. Facts.

The best thing for you to hodl your litecoin but you can take it for long, i never suggest you take litecoin for short. Litecoin is always surging after bitcoin pump.
Im just learning from the old pattern and it keeps repeating anytime.

Never try to take litecoin for short and it's not so profitable as another altcoin.

History repeats itself, there is a high chance the price of LTC will go above $200. The resistance line is above $190, I dunno the price will fall hard if the market buyers can hold the LTC upper side of $150. In all cases, it is risky to invest in overprices altcoins now, I wait for correction. The current market price is around $160 but this temporary resistance will be broken if the market bulls can hold the price above $150. Let's see what the new trend by Btc will do to the rest of the crypto market.

I will prefer to hold LTc. Very high chances  of pumping this year. Altcoin now target is to reach 200$ then next goal will be 375$ as already achieved in 2019 by Litecoin. Now Litecoin price ia only 155 and there is full chance that it will again achievw All time high 375$ soon.

LTC-USD is bullishly diverging, while LTC-BTC has already gone up due to bullish divergence. As most (real) trade volume is against USD(T), you'd expect rather the USD pair to have gone up. Maybe it follows. keep on ur mind that it's usdt price depends whether btc is stable above 30K，I love to trade ltc-btc pair (https://trade.kucoin.com/LTC-BTC)，wait to enter at 42K-45.5K sat range

LTC is very good to be detained for a long time. but still, be careful if the bitcoin market experiences a correction. there is a high probability that it will impact LTC. some of the altcoins on the market did not experience bulls in the current period. but they could be affected if there is a correction in the market. If you want to store altcoins it is better to consider the market capacity as well.

Agreed, that's what I'm thinking about that but bitcoin is not able breaking 41k resistance again. it may be jumped back again to the 32k - 30k range. If we are using LTC-USDT trading pair and it will always need to adjust with the bitcoin price. That means when bitcoin goes up and we will be losing money although the price of LTC - USDT pair was going up.

Is not it too high? This time litecoin was around less than 40k sat.
Long is better for litecoin.

if you are not short in funds I think you can hold LTC, for its about the budget of the trader if he can hold a coin then still have funds, for other projects its okay, but if you are just a day to day trader, and don't have enough funds to invest, I won't suggest it, it will only give you limited movements in trading, so it will depend on how much or how big your funds is.

Aside from Bitcoin, Ethereum and Cardano that I'm currently holding right now I also eyeing Litecoin to hold for at least 1 year minimum

I'm always long for this coin and knowing that Litecoin might be added in Paypal platform (can be used by merchants) possible this year, for sure this will shoot alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum and possible Bitcoin Cash too which is BTW starting to go up already. Hold Litecoin for at least a year but wait for some dips to happen.

when i write this post the price of litecoin is about $151 and i believe litecoin price will double from now price
but, of course its depends on how much you believe with litecoin
because all decisions is in your hands, and remember to do your own analysis my friend

There is still chance price pumping in the future so stay tuned and hold LTC. However as for a short time holder respons, if you was bought LTC token for lower price then you can sold. Otherwise a long time holder respons go and take hold then you should follow there development everyday.

I would stay long for LTC (https://trade.kucoin.com/LTC-BTC). We all see how LTC have struggle in the market but I think they are doing just fine even though it got passed by LINK, DOT and ADA in just a quick moment. I still believe that LTC will come thru soon enough. Volumes are still good as far as I know. Quick gains are still there in this small bull run of alts. Gotta hold em.

I guess LTC is not yet getting pump hard. But the price increase slowly and I think LTC needs to wait for the right time to lift the price. I am sure LTC can increase more than $200 this year, and the chance to go to that price will wide open soon. If you already have LTC by buying at a low price a few months ago, you should hold it and do not use it for trading because the movement of LTC is not good as the other coins. You can confuse to determine the movements if you can not analyze the details of the LTC move.

actually, you have a point on that. i noticed that even though ltc and doge have no active devts, they can keep up with the market. there was even rumour before that ltc has no more developments going on. but these 2 old alts are still surviving and surprising the community. just like the recent pump of doge. i think it is still safe to hold ltc but should of course keep yourself up to date with market movements.

It's hard to say of course, but it all depends from the price at which you bought Litecoin, if you have already made at least x2 profit, then you can safely sell Litecoin and then just wait for the cryptocurrency correction to begin to invest in Litecoin again at a low price, but if If you want to trade with Litecoin, then this is certainly possible, but somehow Litecoin has not grown in price very much recently, so it's up to you here. In general, if I would on your place, I would wait for the correction and then I would invest in Litecoin for a long term.

long or shot that mean you play trading future.
I think it's still long but using only a small leverage like x10 and using 10-15% of the total balance.
and it can also make stop losses to minimize losses.

Hang in there. Since you have previously made the decision to invest your money in LTC, of course you also have to be prepared for the reality. I don't know how much capital you spent or bought at what price? but knowing that LTC is still significant at $ 152, so be patient and wait for the right time to resell it.

I do not trade Litecoin for now, but I hold it until the price increase. But if the price can down, I will buy it more because I think litecoin can rise higher. Maybe litecoin needs more supports to lift the price, but I do not know for sure. But litecoin increase is not too significant like the other coins, and I think litecoin needs more time to increase.

That has always been the key with cryptocurrency, patience. Without it, you will sell either with very limited profit or with a loss. Patience is always the key. If you have Litecoin and you decided to make some profit from it, trust that it will give you just that. But Litecoin is not a special altcoin. It is one of many old trusted coins which will still experience dumps. So just be patient during the dumps and wait for the bullish season. It will come.

I think you should sell your LTC and wait for the altcoin price to go down a bit far. Then use the money you sell your LTC to invest in ethereum. Because ethereum is much more profitable than LTC.

I myself haven't seen a good move after the last update they did. this would be a good pump if the LTC was currently in high demand. unfortunately at this time bitcoin dominance is still quite high, as well as ethereum. We'll see a better altcoin pump when bitcoin dominance starts to wane and stabilize. if so, then LTC still has the possibility to reach its highest price.

If you look at conditions like now I think it is better to hold on to Litecoin,
and if you are sure you plan to hold the coin we must have patience because for me it is an important thing,
besides that we also need to look at market movements and developments in litecoin as well and hopefully later on, Litecoin will reach its highest price

It will take a bit long time for LTC to get up and cause of that in my opinion LTC is the best choice for long-term investing. If you want to make quick money from LTC investment, it is really hard. LTC will rise in the future, maybe we will see it till the end of 2021. Sometimes l prefer holding LTC in my wallet and to tell the truth LTC has always made me happy. l believe this year will be the best year for LTC.

It shows a gaining price, this will simply mean that it moving high compared to its status this time. Bitcoin moves high, altcoins will be doing good as well as a follower. But of course, we still need to check the market first, don't rush, that would be the best thing to do.
If you have some LTC now, just hold it for a while as it is possibly be hitting its ATH once again just like ETH. LTC is one of the leading altcoins, can't ignore the chances that it can yield more profit if you are investing it earlier.

Be careful with litecoin. 150 support already disappeared and if bitcoin gets dumped even deeper probably 30k and litecoin may back again to the below 140
This coin is a good coin but it looks like the moon time is end right now. This time for the crypto market to get another correction again and litecoin will be following it.
Litecoin will go even deeper than bitcoin. Just try to use this coin for the short term trade only.

You are right. Litecoin is currently only going with the movement of Bitcoin. If the price of this altcoin depends on the price of bitcoin, then it is better to trade in bitcoin than to trade in this coin. This will definitely cause frustration among traders, I myself do not expect much from litecoin in the current market situation. The prices of other top coins have already changed a lot, which is attracting traders to other coins.

Yeah LTC is a good choice to be holding right now even for daily uses is good as transactions fees are not so high and it's faster to confirm and not mention that there is an airdrop from Flare Network is coming for LTC holders so there is a potential for it to rise and maybe reaching ATH again i think that in the next 6 month it's possible to see it in 400$ mark.

Long of course, LTC is an old coin which have strong enough community behind it.
Also the graph looks so good if you want to fill your bags before the price will going up again.

The new ATH reaches some old altcoins except Litecoin, EOS blockchain, Tron blockchain, Monero Gold and Tezos. Litecoin hold must be the right decision until the highest ATH. Some altcoins didn't pump to the new ATH, those altcoins will pump next time. I can predict that here all old altcoins could be a good investment, but EOS and Litecoin are my favorites.

yes, this time LTC can't do much compared to some of the other top altcoins that have increased significantly like ETH, BNB etc. I also agree with you, it looks like this is not the time for LTC to experience a significant movement in the current market conditions. a little advice for OP with (HOLD) LTC, and do other things that can be profitable by Taking advantage of the current market situation.

You named 3 good points. The song about the Flare Airdrop has not yet become so public. That worked well at Ripple recently. But thank you that the Airdrop will only be paid out in several months.

I am more and more surprised that the LTC is not yet above the ATH. A lot is still missing and that requires a certain amount of hype. If that's the Airdop, then I would be happy.

LTC for hodl is not something I recommend you to do and even for shorts it is very risky and the reason is simple:

Look at the current price:

LTC against USDT = $152

LTC in relation to BTC = 0.003887 BTC

the problem in short is when the price of bitcoin increases in some cases the price of LTC drops and makes the price of LTC in relation to dollar take time to increase and it can happen that the price of bitcoin drops soon and the person is not left with profit.

this example of mine can also apply to hodl in the case of LTC, because the LTC price in relation to bitcoin is having great difficulty in increasing

I think the hype for the airdrop will drive LTC prices higher and the gain from their prices getting higher will be much greater value then the airdrop itself because incase of the flarenetwork airdrop for LTC it will be like 75Spark for 1LTC compared to 1Spark to1XRP.

For me it is the best if we hodl LTC now and patiently wait. A lot of crypto experts are saying that LTC is the closest friendly cryptocurrency to bitcoin. It means that LTC and bitcoin can help each other in the future to make some big impact in crypto market so it means also that LTC have a big potential in becoming top coins. But right now, I need more information and details to gather about LTC.

If you buy now, I suggest holding for the short term. It is a bullish season, I won't plan to buy many coins for the long term in this season. If you want to buy LTC for the long term, you need to wait for the big correction or even bearish season. Why? It can avoid you buying at an expensive rate and minimize the chance to see big drops after the bullish season.

There are some altcoins that are experiencing high pumps at the moment, such as ethereum, doge, and XRP. We don’t know what altcoins will next
experience in high pumps. Actually, we should’ve prepared with some other TOP coins. Maybe like LTC, it’s not wrong if you hold it right now.
Who knows will surprise and pump with the new ATH. Basically LTC is pretty good and altcoins are popular as well.

Well, if I already have LTC in my wallet, I'll hold it for now. looking at the current developments, popular altcoin prices have caught up with their ATH prices. some have even surpassed it. however, until now LTC is still quite far from its ATH price. So, I think that LTC will probably pump this year, and is close to its ATH or exceed it.

All of this is because Bitcoin has increased by up to 20% from the previous price, so other tokens such as Ethereum, ADA, LTC, Doge, TRX and others have also experienced a very good increase, another one is TEN where the increase has exceeded 80% of the price previous.

LTC still hasn't seen a significant increase compared to other top altcoins or other coins pumping more than 2x, but I don't think LTC is bad, it's worth investing in, and if you already have this altcoin then just wait patiently. until the price of LTC increases significantly.

Yes offcourse godl for now. But little curious about Doge to hodl.

Litecoin has a great potential for growth. And those who hold it will definitely be satisfied with its new ATH, which LTC has not yet achieved. I assume that litecoin, as well as ethereum and bitcoin, should surpass its previous ATH by at least 2 times.

If Litecoin is compared to ethereum I don't think it's fair,
because after all, as you say that until now, ethereum is still the king of altcoin,
the important thing is we have to have the right strategy for Litecoin,
because the coin is one of the potential coins and maybe in the future the coin can develop even further

It is all up to  you no one can suggest better than you. Just a person suggest you to go for long another person for short and another one told you to hold. Now what will you choose its regally tough? Yes it is. Just think if you go for long by the suggest of a users and price gone down. Then whom you blame that person. But is that person deserve it? No, because he shares his thought to you because you ask. So just try to be Your self on crypto. Because only you are the person who can take best decision and could be happy with any condition and any result you got from your choice. Because you can learn from your mistake and achievement. So It's all up to you.

Please don't mind i hope you understand that my every single word is for your Better future on crypto industry. Love you friend. And have a safe journey on crypto.

I do not want to sound to be a shiller but my general overview is that market is going to be very bullish in coming months so even if we talk specifically about LTC is see big room for growth may be 5x to 10x more potential.

That is certain, especially considering that the conditions like now are not possible to sell it,
the most important thing in investing we must always follow developments and market movements,
And if you really want to invest in litecoin, you have to have the patience to hold it in the long term

as per today, the price of LTC already reach $182.89,
for me, i think it will be the best to hold this coin for a long time, even though its crashing right now, this coin can bounce back and reach $200 soon..
let's just wait and see.

personally, I will probably replace LTC with another coin. however, I do not see LTC's development as spectacular at the moment. Well, people are currently looking at BNB, so I think BNB is one coin worth holding in the long run. Beyond my mind, we all have different strategies, and LTC is still a recommended coin today.

For me personally, LTC is a coin that has not yet shown its main growth and I am currently holding it because I believe that this year LTC can show active growth and reach a new price maximum. My choice of Hodl for LTC. As for the recommendation for you, here you have to decide for yourself, but I think that LTC is a good coin to buy and hold. You should understand that the crypto market is now in the final stages of its growth for this cycle and the prices of many altcoins may fly to the moon.

it doesn't seem have a lot of potential compared with the new tokens. As you can see that the movement of litecoin actually pegged with bitcoin. When bitcoin dump litecoin too and otherwise litecoin will be pumped when bitcoin does it.
Litecoin is lack of innovation consider the only utility usage for the litecoin to be used as a peer to peer transaction and store of value but it looks like litecoin is not so good to be considered as a store of value too.
It's better to use this coin for short term rather than long term.

I am still positive that LTC has a lot of space to grow. One of the reasons is that the bigest crypto fund Grayscale is still pretty bullish and holds LTC as their 3rd highest investment coin. After we come back from the current correction, we should slowly start to close in on ATH.

I think HODL is the best option out of the choices. And I prefer to HODL most of my coins especially if I feel like they have a future in the world of cryptocurrencies, you’ll really never know in a few years time how much it’ll increase its value and you’d be surprised when that time comes. Long term HODL is good for investing your extra fiat money.

It is no surprise as to why LTC is growing big right now. The fact that all other currencies are charging big fees for smaller transactions and the time taken is also ridiculously high.

Ultimately people will choose the coin which gives you freedom to transact with less fees ad short period of time. There comes the LTC in the picture with as low fees as 0.04 USD. Why wouldn't anyone try it out in the long term?

BTC & ETH are pain in the back considering their fees. They are more or less just assets for future investments. So if you are willing to invest in LTC then do it, it's strong bull in the near future.

I am trying to hold my Litecoin and waiting for the price to increase while I am trying to accumulate Litecoin by buying at the market because I think Litecoin will have the opportunity to rise after this correction. I see that the price is increasing the price in bitcoin and usdt, so maybe the next month will be the good time for Litecoin to start the rally. If that happens, I think we can make a big profit from Litecoin, especially if it can hit more than $250 per 1 Litecoin.

For me it’s a hold for LTC and holding some other altcoins now, because currently they have corrected a bit so if possible, can buy on this lower price value or continue to hold the existing positions. Also, the markets slowly have started to look good and price have started to even rise as well. LTC might cross in coming months 180$ and so continuing holding it.

Hopefully the litecoin story will end in a bull run like you said because I am similar to you, I am holding a relative amount of litecoin but during the recent bitcoin bull run, the altcoins behind bitcoin all had a strong boost, typically ethereum while litecoin just moved very slowly and lacked vitality, feeling quite disappointed in this regard. However, the recent price correction is likely to be a last chance for litecoin to change people's minds and prove to the crypto community that its position is worthy, not taking advantage of this opportunity well, litecoin is easy to overshadow as an outdated altcoin

I have that feeling after I see Litecoin price can break $200 this month, so I guess that Litecoin can increase and back to that price and try to raise the price more. Litecoin is now in the number eight position, giving more chances for Litecoin to lift the position to the better and beat the other coins. With the low price now, Litecoin can be a nice target for investors to buy before the price increase so high. But yes, the litecoin price moved very slowly than the other coins, which makes us patient for a while.

LTC is always hodl
