Can Litecoin [LTC] recover on the back of demand amid strong headwinds

ambcrypto.com:

Litecoin, although it may not have been the preference of every investor, it has still been one of the altcoins in the market with the highest rate of adoption.

And since that is all Litecoin has to offer, given the absence of DeFi capabilities, adoption is precisely what will save the coin from vanishing out of existence.

Usually, to connote a fall in price, it is said that the coin is seeing red, but Litecoin is seeing white because the recent fall in price has thrown the altcoin back into the downtrend that has been tormenting the coin for over 11 months now.

After a failed escape in November, Litecoin attempted another one again last month. For the most part, it seemed to have been successful as LTC in the same duration tested the critical level of $123 as support.

However, the 9% plunge of 6 April resulted in a return to this downtrend wedge which is narrowing with every passing day.

At the time of writing, LTC has tested the upper trend line as resistance, but if it does not break out soon, it could be testing the lower trend line as support at $102.59.

Now a recovery from this is difficult since the price indicators are certainly against the possibility of that happening. Moreover, even investors might plan on pulling themselves away from the market.

Litecoin has not been changing hands too frequently recently, as verified by the velocity of the asset.

This may also be because for the last few days, on-chain transactions in loss have been exceeding transactions in profit. The market observed a similar pattern when Litecoin was treading around the $103 mark at the beginning of March.
