If you have experience trading Litcoin, a few questions for you:

1) Does it have enough liquidity to make it functional as a trading tool, moving between Bitcoin and Litcoin and back?

2) Does it have a real-world economy behind it yet?

3) Where can I get up to speed on Litcoin exchanges and trading charts?

4) Are there any exchanges that allow a direct Bitcoin to Litcoin trade and back?

Thanks

1. Volume on btc-e is Volume: 478801 LTC / 2189 BTC, that should be monthly

2. It has the most real world economy of any alt currency. But that's not much.

3. There's LTC-GLOBAL for a stock exchange, but LTC is very nich.

Thanks for the heads up.

I'm way behind the curve on these other crypto currencies.

Any good places like bitcoincharts.com to get price history on litcoin?  And/or a premier on its' basic function?

Any other crypto currencies I should be looking at in your opinion?

I'm not looking to arbitrage.  More so I'm looking for a tools to easily move in and out of Bitcoin with low transaction cost.  I have ethical and moral issues with fiat.  I would rather do it not moving into fiat if that is at all possible.

Eventually a mad frenzy will hit the Bitcoin market, causing an overbought situation.  The eventually sell-off will cause an under bought buying opportunity when another base is established.

I'm looking for tools to quickly move out of Bitcoin in that frenzy period, then move back into Bitcoin when a new base has developed.

This is actually a daily volume and is low. We've been seeing 1M+ ltc per day for the past couple days on the ltcbtc order book.
