From a longer timeframe perspective, Litecoin vs Bitcoin Bitcoin While some may still be wondering what is Bitcoin, who created Bitcoin, or how does Bitcoin work, one thing is certain: Bitcoin has changed the world.No one can remain indifferent to this revolutionary, decentralized, digital asset nor to its blockchain technology.In fact, we’ve gone a long way ever since a Florida resident Laszlo Hanyecz made BTC’s first official commercial transaction with a real company by trading 10,000 Bitcoins for 2 pizzas at his local Papa John’s.One could now argue that While some may still be wondering what is Bitcoin, who created Bitcoin, or how does Bitcoin work, one thing is certain: Bitcoin has changed the world.No one can remain indifferent to this revolutionary, decentralized, digital asset nor to its blockchain technology.In fact, we’ve gone a long way ever since a Florida resident Laszlo Hanyecz made BTC’s first official commercial transaction with a real company by trading 10,000 Bitcoins for 2 pizzas at his local Papa John’s.One could now argue that Read this Term is in the middle of a Bollinger Squeeze, particularly since Friday, as can be seen below on the H4 timeframe (marked in white)...
But zooming into the hourly timeframe, we can still see some classic technicals at play within this very squeeze. So let's take a closer look at the LTC/BTC chart below (click to expand):
For this chart, I have performed the Fibonacci study from yesterday's low at 0.0248 until today's high at 0.0259.

I would expect price to continue to bounce between today's high and the 38.2% for the next few hours, purely because I just don't see valid technicals to indicate any break out just yet.
