For the Day Ahead

A move back through to $207 levels would support a run at the first major resistance level at $208.12.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin Cash ABC to break out from Thursday’s high $207.75.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, resistance at $207 levels would likely continue to pin Bitcoin Cash ABC back.

Failure to move back through to $207 levels could see Bitcoin Cash ABC fall back into the red.

A fall through to sub-$205.90 levels would bring the first major support level at $204.02 into play before any recovery.

Barring a broad-based crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin Cash ABC should steer clear of the second major support level at $201.78.

Failure to move back through to $2.60 levels would likely see EOS fall back into the red.

A fall through to sub-$2.5810 levels would bring the first major support level at $2.5364 into play.

ETH/USD 13/12/19 Daily Chart

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move back through to $145 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $147.51.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Thursday’s high $146.12.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally on the day, resistance at $146 would likely leave Ethereum short of $147 levels for a 3rd consecutive day.
