The crypto bulls fight back early on to reverse Monday's losses. A move back through the early highs will be needed to avoid a reversal.

Ripple, Dash coin, Bitcoin, Monero and Ethereum

EOS

EOS slid by 3.16% on Monday. Partially reversing a 7.57% rally from Sunday, EOS ended the day at $3.1070.

A bearish start to the day saw EOS slide from an early morning intraday high $3.2107 to a mid-morning intraday low $3.0651.

Falling well short of the first major resistance level at $3.3098, EOS came within range of the first major support level at $3.0253.

Finding support through the late morning, EOS recovered to $3.14 levels before sliding back to sub-$3.10 levels. A late in the day move back through to $3.10 levels reduced the deficit for the day.

At the time of writing, EOS was up by 2.77% to $3.1930. A bullish start to the day saw EOS rally from an early morning low $3.1054 to a high $3.2115.

Steering clear of the major support levels, EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $3.1901 early on.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move back through to $3.20 levels to support a run at the second major resistance level at $3.2732.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to breakout from the morning high $3.2115.

Barring an extended broad-based crypto rally, resistance at $3.20 would likely cap any upside on the day.

Failure to move back through to $3.20 levels could see EOS hit reverse.

A fall back through to sub-$3.13 levels would bring the first major support level at $3.0445 into play.

Barring a crypto meltdown, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$3.00 levels and the second major support level at $2.9820.

Falling well short of the first major resistance level at $148.19, Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $143.42.

Steering clear of the second major support level at $140.24, Ethereum recovered to 2nd half of a day high $144.84 before easing back.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to hold above the first major resistance level to support another run at the second major resistance level at $149.10.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Ethereum to break through the morning high $147.27.

Barring an extended crypto rally, however, resistance at $147 would likely continue to cap any upside.

Failure to hold above the first major resistance level at $146.31 could see Ethereum give up the early gains.

A fall back through to sub-$144 levels would bring the first major support level at $141.41 into play.

Barring a crypto sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$140 levels and the second major support level at $139.3.
