EOS, Ethereum and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – 16/05/20
EOS
EOS fell by 1.73% on Friday. Partially reversing a 4.01% rally from Thursday, EOS ended the day at $2.5808.
Another choppy start to the day saw EOS slide to an early morning intraday low $2.5361 before finding support.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $2.5126, EOS rallied to a late morning intraday high $2.6627.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $2.6958, EOS slid back to $2.54 levels before finding late support.
EOS broke back through to $2.61 levels before a final hour fall back to sub-$2.60 levels.
At the time of writing, EOS was up by 0.68% to $2.5985. A mixed start to the day saw EOS fall to an early morning low $2.5705 before rising to a high $2.6117.
EOS left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
For the day ahead
EOS would need to move through to $2.60 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $2.6503 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from the morning high $2.6117.
Barring an extended crypto rally, however, the major first resistance level would likely cap any upside.
Failure to move back through to $2.60 levels would see EOS fall back into the red.
A fall through the morning low $2.5705 would bring the first major support level at $2.5237 into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of the second major support level at $2.4666.
