It's a mixed start to the day for the majors. A move through to key levels by late morning would deliver a bounce later in the day.

EOS

EOS slid by 2.72% on Wednesday. Following a 0.06% gain on Tuesday, EOS ended the day at $2.7729.

A bullish start to the day saw EOS rally to an early morning intraday high $2.9865 before hitting reverse.

EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $2.9031 and the second major resistance level at $2.9520.

The reversal saw EOS slide to a late afternoon intraday low $2.7113. EOS fell through the first major support level at $2.7833 to find support at the second major support level at $2.7124.

Late support limited the downside on the day, with EOS recovering to $2.8 levels before easing back.

At the time of writing, EOS was up by 0.36% to $2.7830. A mixed start to the day saw EOS fall to an early morning low $2.7500 before striking a high $2.7956.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move back through to $2.8250 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $2.9358.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from $2.80 levels.

Barring an extended broad-based crypto rally, EOS would likely fall well short of the first major resistance level at $2.9358.

Failure to move through to $2.8250 levels could see EOS hit reverse. A fall through the morning low $2.7500 would bring the first major support level at $2.6606 into play.

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