Bitcoin Dips to New Lows: BTC and LTC Analysis for August 1, 2023

The support level at $29,000 couldn't hold the price, leading sellers to push it lower and setting a new local low. What happens next largely depends on whether buyers can reclaim the $29,000 level. If they succeed, we can expect the price to continue moving sideways, potentially testing the support zone of $29,700-$30,100.

Should the correction intensify, BTC could fall to the support levels of $28,500 and $28,000. Given that the next support zone is fairly broad, ranging from $26,700 to $28,000, it's wise to wait for a price response at these levels to adjust your trading strategy. 

Litecoin is currently trading within the support range of $87.45-$89.54 and the resistance range of $95.0-$96.2. To revisit the top limit of this range and refresh its local peak, the LTC price needs to solidify itself above the $92.25 mark.

If the correction continues, LTC may test the support levels at $86.0 and $81.6. 

There are 2 days left until the LTC halving. In anticipation of this news, the asset has been on a continuous rise for the past 2 months. However, following the actual event, significant changes are unlikely to occur. The reduction in miner rewards may have long-term implications, so a drop in LTC's price following the halving is plausible, primarily due to overvaluation by buyers.
