LTC and EOS - Is the increase ending?

FXOpen

LTC/USD

Since the start of the week, the price of Litecoin has been increasing and has come up from $55.84 at it’s lowest point to $62.86 at it’s highest which is an increase of 12.57%. The price is currently being traded around the levels of today’s high but is starting to show the signs of struggle to keep up the upward momentum.
LTC and EOS - Is the increase ending?On the hourly chart, you can see that the price today came up to the vicinity of the prior high and has tested the 0 Fibonacci level, finding resistance there on the quick spike to the upside. This indicates that the horizontal level serves as a strong resistance and is likely to continue doing so. After a decrease of 18.8% made last week, ending at the 0.786 Fib level, which is considered the 4th wave out of the five-wave impulse we have seen an increase of 23.13% which could be the 5th wave. As the price came up to the prior high this 5th wave could be completed or it could continue for another attempt and eventually wick above it, but is likely to end soon.

Another possibility would be that the price ended its 5th wave on the 17th of January in which case the current increase could be corrective in nature, but in either way from the current levels we are to see the start of a downside move either as the 2nd wave of the higher degree, or further downtrend continuation if this five-wave impulse was the part of the correction to the upside.

EOS/USD

From Monday’s open at $3.64 the price of EOS has increased by 15.5% as it came up to $4.2 at it’s highest today and is still being traded around those levels. The price is still in an upward trajectory and is indicating bullish action.

LTC and EOS - Is the increase ending?On the hourly chart, you can see that unlike in the case of Litecoin the price of EOS has surpassed the prior high made on the 17th of January but like Litecoin reached the horizontal resistance level close by and is currently retesting it for resistance.

As we have most likely seen the higher degree five-wave impulse from the 17th December last year the increase is soon expected to end, but that doesn’t mean that the price is can’t continue moving to the upside for another 10% as there is still room to go to. The ending wave is most likely developing and considering that it surprised the prior high it might continue to the next horizontal level to the upside which is at $4.6 but that all depends on the current interaction with the horizontal resistance.
