EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $4.5031 before sliding to an early afternoon intraday low $4.2795.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $4.1183, EOS bounced back to a late intraday high $4.6667.

EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $4.5031 and the second major resistance level at $4.6513.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move through to $4.60 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $4.7520.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from Tuesday’s high $4.6667.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $4.60 levels would likely leave EOS short of the first major resistance level.

Failure to move through to $4.60 levels could see EOS fall deeper into the red.

A fall through to sub-$4.51 levels would bring the first major support level at $4.3443 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, EOS should continue to steer of sub-$4.00 levels. The Second major support level at $4.0978 should limit any downside.
