The coin is still holding in the area of strong support. Trading volume rose to $404 million in 24 hours.
The RSI index for Litecoin keeps around 63 - this is an intermediate state between overbought and oversold assets. That is, the chances of a rollback and a rebound are approximately equal.
The bears will try to bring LTC below $60, in which case the reset may turn out to be strong.
If the coin stays above $60.8, then it will have a good chance to rise to $66 and even to $70, analysts predict.
