Litecoin Could Be ‘Just Weeks Away’ From Third-Ever Golden Cross — Expert :

The price of Litecoin didn’t end May in the best possible way, especially considering its start to the month, falling from around $95 to beneath $85 before May 31st. While the start of June was quite strong, the altcoin has failed to maintain its bullish momentum each time a rally seemed to be on.

After falling beneath the $80 level on June 22, the Litecoin price seems to be back on its feet as it currently dances around the $87 mark. Interestingly, a fresh price outlook portraying an even brighter future for the cryptocurrency has emerged.

How Much LTC Price Surged After First Two Golden Crosses

In a recent post on the X platform, Chartered Market Technician Tony Severino shared an exciting analysis of the Litecoin price. According to the crypto expert, the price of LTC could embark on an explosive rally depending on its movement over the next few weeks.

This bullish projection is based on the potential formation of a Golden Cross — the third ever — on the Litecoin weekly chart. In a crypto context, a Golden Cross occurs when a short-term moving average (50-week moving average, in this case) crosses above a longer-term moving average (200-week moving average).

Typically, Golden Cross formations often precede and are associated with extended periods of bullish price movements. However, Severino believes that Litecoin is just weeks of a significant rally away from triggering its third-ever Golden Cross on the weekly price chart.

Severino cited the earlier two situations where the Golden Cross occurred after a substantial price rally. In the first instance, this chart phenomenon appeared on the Litecoin weekly timeframe after a 700% surge from the local lows in 2017. Meanwhile, the LTC rallied by 450% from its local bottom before the second-ever Golden Cross in 2021.

For each time the Golden Cross appeared on the chart, the price of Litecoin witnessed a significant bullish momentum. In 2017, the LTC price soared by 7,100% from around $5 to as high as $360. The altcoin jumped by more than 380% to reach its current all-time high of $410 after the Golden Cross formation in 2021.

If the Golden Cross does occur and history is anything to go by, the Litecoin price could be preparing to reach a new all-time high in its next leg up.
