The relative strength index is at 67.54, reflecting a very strong demand for Litecoin and the continuation of the buying pressure in the markets.

Litecoin remains above all moving averages, so the market is still bullish at the current market level of $94.23.

Both Williams’s percent range and STOCHRSI are signalling overbought market conditions, which means that the price is expected to decline in the short-term range.
