Litecoin (LTC) is showing positive signs above the USD 180 level. The price could continue rising if there is a clear break above USD 185. The key hurdle is at USD 188, above which the price may possibly rise towards the USD 200 level.

Dogecoin (DOGE) is trading above the USD 0.232 pivot level. The first key resistance is near USD 0.250. A close above the USD 0.250 level might open the doors for a larger increase. In this case, the price could continue higher towards the USD 0.265 level.
