It's a bearish start to the day. Failure to hit key levels by late morning will test the majors later in the day...

EOS

EOS rose by 1.14% on Sunday. Following on from a 0.08% gain on Saturday, EOS ended the week down 0.22% to $2.6905.

A bullish start to the day saw EOS rally from an early morning intraday low $2.6601 to a late afternoon intraday high $2.7813.

Steering clear of the major support levels, EOS broke through the major resistance levels before pulling back.

The late pullback saw EOS fall through the third major resistance level at $2.7353 and second major resistance level at $2.6934.

In spite of the pullback, EOS managed to hold above the first major resistance level at $2.6732.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 0.14% to $2.6868. A mixed start to the day saw EOS rise from an early morning low $2.6830 to a high $2.6883 before easing back.

EOS left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move back through to $2.71 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $2.7612.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break back through $2.70 levels.

Barring an extended broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level at $2.7612 would likely limit any upside on the day.

Failure to move through to $2.71 levels could see EOS hit reverse. A fall back through to Sunday’s low $2.6601 would bring the first major support level at $2.64 into play.

Barring a crypto meltdown, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$2.60 levels.

Steering clear of the major support levels, Ethereum broke through the first major resistance level at $135.76 and second major resistance level at $137.38.

Falling short of $140 levels, Ethereum slid back through the first and second major resistance levels in a late sell-off.

In spite of a pullback into the red, Ethereum managed to recover in the final hour to close out the day in the green.

Ethereum would need to break back through to $136.15 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $138.14.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Ethereum to break back through to $138 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, however, Ethereum would likely come up short of $138 levels on the day.

In the event of an extended rally, Ethereum could eye $140 levels and the second major resistance level at $140.97.

Failure to move back through $136.15 levels could see Ethereum fall deeper into the red. A pullback through the morning low $134.78 would bring the first major support level at $133.31 into play.

Barring a crypto sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer well clear of sub-$130 levels.

The second major resistance level at $131.31 should limit any downside on the day.
