The daily time frame shows that the LTC/USD pair has cleared major trendline resistance, and also its 200-day moving average, during the recent advance.

Bulls may be preparing to rally the LTC/USD pair towards the current 2020 trading high, around the $85 resistance level.

Traders should note that a massive inverted head-and-shoulders pattern, with more than $50 of upside potential will form if the LTC/USD pair reaches $85.
