LTC has formed the strongest and most assured breakout pattern - the Parabolic Breakout and Symmetrical Triangle - with a breakout target of $600. This parabolic breakout pattern represents some of the largest gains possible.
A successful breakout is almost guaranteed - failure is rare and most often occurs between 50% and 75% into the contracting wedge.

Its been a long bumpy ride but at this point the weak holders are finishing up selling and, we have gathered the accumulation and interest for the next leg. Dip buyers will rush to the market while the price is cheap and there should be a massive increase in volume on the breakout.
We will be looking for a drop in volume and will be guided by the moving averages.
Dip buyers can get start getting now while the price is cheap.
Breakout buyers can wait for confirmation by verifying volume or a price spike (say 3%) after breaking the upper resistance line which is currently trending downward from the upper 280s as the approach toward the apex nears.
Break out target is set by measuring distance of the widest part of the triangle, which will different by exchange.
