It's a mixed start to the day as investors lock-in gains from Tuesday. A move back through the early highs would signal another breakout.

EOS

EOS rallied by 22.09% on Tuesday. Reversing a 3.16% slide from Monday with interest, EOS ended the day at $3.7923.

A particularly bullish day saw EOS rally from an early morning intraday low $3.1054 to an afternoon intraday high $4.0596.

EOS broke through the major resistance levels to visit $4.00 levels for the 1st time since late September.

In spite of a late pullback to sub-$4.00 levels, EOS held above the third major resistance level at $3.4188 through to the day end.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 0.27% to $3.7821. A mixed start to the day saw EOS fall to an early morning low $3.7300 before striking a high $3.9400.

EOS left the major support and resistance untested before falling back into the red.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move back through the morning high $3.9400 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $4.1995.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to breakout from Tuesday’s high $4.0596.

Barring another broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance at $4.1995 would likely cap any upside on the day.

Failure to move back through the morning highs could see EOS fall deeper into the red.

A fall back through the morning low to sub-$3.65 levels would bring the first major support level at $3.2453 into play.

Barring a crypto meltdown, however, EOS should steer clear of Tuesday’s low $3.1054.
