basically halving involves miners getting only half the coins they used to get per block. with less "new" coins available the price per coin is expected to rise quite a bit as fewer new coins are added.

with this coin that is topped more because of the major release scheduled for the 18th which is HUGE.

Can you tell us more about this "HUGE" release you were referring to? Is this has been shared by the coin dev?
If the coin has a good demand and it is being used and adopted on the market, it will likely increased its value once the number of rewards per block has been reduced.
There is a great balance about rewards and getting the value of that for the miners, or they will just move on to the next coin.
But if the demand is only based on speculation and hype and nothing more that can substantiate it, well this coin is on a life support already and whats keeping it alive is what can be seen right now.

+1
Although I can see the coin rising to 20 today

Do you mean 2000? Why today?thnx.

Meaning to mine them becomes harder?
It would make sense if there are to many coins around.

I'm pretty sure mining becomes harder depending on difficulty. Halving means to divide the current block reward in half and that becomes the new block reward. Such as, if it was at 12, it'd halve down to 6.
Decreasing the block value to 24LTCD means that you get a lower block reward than you used to, meaning that essentially the demand goes up due to the block reward, or, let's just say supply goes down lower per block.
To be honest, I'm not too keen on Difficulty but I'm pretty sure it's when finding a block grows harder and this depends heavenly on the difficulty re-target or the algorithm of the difficulty. This is much more different than the coin's algorithm, since, it just controls the difficulty and things pertaining to it. One of the popular difficulty algorithms is KGW, but there's also other ones, for example, XPM/Primecoin's.

Why is halving a good thing for the price.
Can someone tell me?

I'm not a market guru, just a lowly developer, but generally speaking at a halving increased coin supply diminishes with respect to demand pushing the price upward.

Is there any coin whose price has actually went up after halving?

Most of the well-known ones have. Or ones with fairly good communities. The biggest example is Bitcoin, of course, possibly even Doge and others.

me personally i'm only expecting a rise in price when getting neat features released, which i'm sure we'll get.
So i'm not focusing on price and just bagholding.

well the less coins coming out the harder to mine so you should want more for them and not give them away at a low price when there was a lot more available mining. supply and demand . Demand as been really high just a few days ago it was like 10 buys for every sell and someone was able to keep the market low by dumping some coins below the asking price so they could buy cheap and load up. We already seen a 4 plus btc sell wall eaten up today at 1500

These people who wants to sell cheap are stupid or what???

I guess so. I mean, quite seriously with a very serious face, why would you sell so cheap before it halves? Seriously? Do they not think they could get more possibly tomorrow or tonight depending on their timezone? We already saw how BTCD exploded, so, da fuke is going on with them?

Wallet 1.2.2 will be Released Tonight US time: BLOCK REWARD REDUCED from 400 to less than 24

WTF

Well, if it does get decreased to 24 LTCD, that's even better for the value and I'm not going to lie.
