Bullish throughout the day, EOS rallied from an early morning intraday low $2.9305 to a late intraday high $3.2150.

Steering clear of the major support levels, EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $3.1024. The second major resistance level at $3.2104 capped the upside on the day.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to steer clear of sub-$3.1200 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $3.3098.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to breakout from the morning high $3.2107.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, the first major resistance level would likely limit any upside.

Failure to steer clear of sub-$3.1200 levels could see EOS fall deeper into the red.

A fall through to sub-$3.1000 levels would bring the first major support level at $3.0253 into play.

Barring a crypto meltdown, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$3.00 levels and the second major support level at $2.8357.

Ethereum would need to hold onto $145 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $148.19.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Ethereum to break through the morning high $147.00.

Ripple’s XRP will need to move back through to $0.2140 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.2179.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break out from the morning high $0.21549.
