$LTC Today’s Pro Trading Plan: LTC/USDT - May 9, 2025

1. Primary Bias & Setup:

• Directional bias is long following a clean bullish breakout above the 20-day MA ($86.16), validating a trend continuation structure. Price has invalidated prior supply near $91.50 with increasing momentum. Current setup is intraday swing-continuation, aiming to ride strength until overhead resistance.

2. Entry Zone:

• Optimal long re-entry lies within $92.20–$93.00, aligning with minor demand from prior breakout wick and VWAP support. Confluence from MA(20) trailing below adds dynamic demand. Watch for a micro pullback into this zone with bullish engulfing confirmation.

3. Stop Loss Placement:

• SL at $89.80—below last bullish impulse low and structural pivot. Break below invalidates bullish continuation and suggests absorption at breakout zone.

4. Risk/Reward Ratio: 1:2.5 based on entry at $92.50, SL $89.80, and TPs as defined below.

5. Profit Targets:

• Target 1: $96.00 – immediate prior high, likely to face short-term resistance.

• Target 2: $98.80 – 200-day MA, high-probability magnet for mean reversion traders.

• Target 3: $102.50 – psychological extension and prior inefficiency fill from March selloff.

6. Market Sentiment:

• Volume surged on breakout candle (174M+), indicating institutional participation. Bullish divergence confirmed with price rising above previous highs while MACD/momentum lags—suggesting breakout isn’t exhausted yet. No visible liquidity sweeps near current highs—buy-side imbalance intact.

7. Invalidation Plan & Contingency Setup:

If $89.80 is breached, bias flips short. New entry: $89.20–$90.00 retest of failed support. SL: $91.60.

• TP1: $86.00 (MA20 retest)

• TP2: $83.50 (range midline)

• TP3: $76.00 (range base liquidity pocket)
