As long as BTC goes up, LTC will keep following suit. In fact it's been growing, and will continue to grow, at a faster rate than BTC. As BTC keeps rising, more and more people will start looking at the lower-priced alt coins.
The last 2 days are showing exactly that but we have to wait more to see if that trend continues.
In any case seems that there are still a lot of boats for people to miss
