It has traded above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $224 high to $200 low. However, the most important resistance is near $215. The mentioned $215 level was a support earlier, and now it is likely to prevent gains.

On the downside, the recent low near $200 is a major support. If the price fails to stay above the $200 level, there can be more declines, and LTC/USD could even test the $180 level.
