For the day ahead, a breakthrough to $156 levels would bring the first major resistance level at $156.89 into play. Support from the broader market could see Bitcoin Cash ABC breakout from $156 levels to bring $160 levels into play before any pullback.

Barring another crypto-rally, we would expect Bitcoin Cash ABC to come up short of the second major resistance level at $161.17.

Failure to break through to $156 levels could see Bitcoin Cash ABC pullback through to $152 levels in the early part of the week. Holding onto $150 levels would be needed to avoid a slide through $148 levels. A fall through $148 would bring the first major support level at $144.07 into play.

Failure to hold onto $52 levels could see Litecoin give up the morning gains. A fall through to $50 levels would be needed, however, to bring sub-$50 levels and the first major support level at $48.90 into play.

Barring a broad-based crypto sell-off, we would expect Litecoin to steer clear of sub-$50 levels on the day.
