EOS rose by 1.53% on Friday. Partially reversing a 5.78% slide from Thursday, EOS ended the day at $2.8723.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $2.6746, EOS rallied to a late morning intraday high $2.9327.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move through to $2.8760 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $2.9289.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break back through to $2.90 levels.

Barring another extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $2.9327 would likely limit any upside.

Failure to move through to $2.8760 levels could see EOS fall deeper into the red.

A fall through to sub-$2.86 levels would bring the first major support level at $2.8196 into play before any recovery.

Barring a crypto sell-off, however, EOS should steer well clear of sub-$2.70 levels. The second major support level at $2.7668 should limit any downside on the day.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid sub-$212 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $217.72.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from the morning high $213.55

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $217.58 should limit any upside.

Failure to avoid sub-$212 levels could see Ethereum hit reverse.

A fall back through sub-$212 levels would bring the first major support level at $206.32 into play before any recovery.

Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$200 levels on the day. The second major support level at $200.55 should limit any downside.
