EOS, Ethereum and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – 17/05/20

EOS

EOS rose by 1.90% on Saturday. Reversing a 1.73% fall from Friday, EOS ended the day at $2.6324.

A bullish start to the day saw EOS rally from an intraday low $2.5705 to an early morning intraday high $2.6863.

EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $2.6503 before hitting reverse.

The reversal saw EOS fall back to sub-$2.60 levels before finding late support to deliver the upside on the day.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 0.29% to $2.6247. A mixed start to the day saw EOS fall to an early morning low $2.6228 before striking a high $2.6480.

EOS left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move through to $2.63 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $2.6890 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from Saturday’s high $2.6863.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the major first resistance level would likely cap any upside.

Failure to move back through to $2.63 levels would see EOS fall deeper into the red.

A fall through the morning low $2.6228 would bring the first major support level at $2.5732 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of the second major support level at $2.5139.

For the day ahead

Ripple’s XRP will need to avoid sub-$0.20 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.2024.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break out from Saturday’s high $0.20229.

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

Failure to avoid sub-$0.20 levels could see Ripple’s XRP give up the early gains.

A fall back through the morning low $0.19882 would bring the first major support level at $0.1966 into play.

Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Ripple’s XRP should steer clear of sub-$0.19 support levels.
