Investors can watch for support at $550 going into Friday.
Litecoin
Litecoin takes a break from its month-long downward trend, entering Friday with modest gains. Prices hold steady between the days low of $150 and resistance at around $170. If Litecoin breaks through resistance, it could signify a bullish setup.
