For the day ahead

EOS would need to move back through to $4.30 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $4.3647.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break back through Sunday’s high $4.3458.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level, and Sunday’s high would likely limit in any upside.

Failure to move back through to $4.30 levels could see EOS fall back into the red.

A pullback through to sub-$4.2075 levels would bring the first major support level at $4.0689 into play.

Barring a broad-based crypto sell-off, however, EOS should continue to steer well clear of sub-$4.00 levels.
