EOS

EOS rose by 0.34% on Saturday. Following on from an 8.28% surge on Friday, EOS ended the day at $2.9945.

A mixed start to the day saw EOS fall to an early morning intraday low $2.9301 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $2.7495, EOS rallied to a late intraday high $3.1242.

EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $3.0999 before sliding back to sub-$3 levels.

At the time of writing, EOS was up by 1.10% to $3.0273. Another mixed start to the day saw EOS fall to an early morning low $2.9305 before striking a high $3.0449.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to steer clear of sub-$3.020 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $3.1024.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to breakout from the morning high $3.0449.

Barring an extended broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $3.1242 would likely limit any upside.

Failure to steer clear of sub-$3.020 levels could see EOS hit reverse.

A fall through the morning low $2.9305 would bring the first major support level at $2.9083 into play.

Barring a crypto meltdown, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$2.90 levels and the second major support level at $2.8222.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to hold onto $144 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $146.42.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Ethereum to break through to $145 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, however, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $148 would likely pin Ethereum back from $160.

Failure to hold onto $144 levels could see Ethereum fall back into the red.

A fall through the morning low $141.83 levels would bring the first major support level at $140.42 into play.

Barring a crypto sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer well clear of sub-$140 levels.

For the day ahead

Ripple’s XRP will need to move back through to $0.2130 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.2181.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break out from the morning high $0.21489.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $0.21978 would likely limit any upside.

Failure to move back through to $0.2130 levels could see Ripple’s XRP take a hit.
