It's a choppy start to the day for the majors. Failure to return to the early highs will likely weigh later in the day.

EOS

EOS slid by 6.31% on Sunday. Reversing a 3.54% gain from Saturday, EOS ended the week up 4.08% to $2.1356.

A bullish start to the day saw EOS rise to a mid-morning intraday high $2.3950 before hitting reverse.

Coming up against the first major resistance level at $2.3923, EOS tumbled to a final hour intraday low $2.0984.

The reversal saw EOS fall through the first major support level at $2.1374 to wrap up the day in the deep red.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 0.25% to $2.1302. A choppy start to the day saw EOS slide to an early morning low $2.0632 before striking a high $2.1647.

EOS left the major support and resistance levels untested early in the day.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move through to $2.21 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $2.3209 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from the morning high $2.1647.

Barring another extended rally, the first major resistance level at $2.3209 would likely limit any upside.

Failure to move through to $2.21 levels could see EOS fall deeper into the red.

A fall back through to sub-$2.10 levels would bring the first major support level at $2.0243 back into play.

Barring another crypto meltdown, however, EOS should steer well clear of $2.00 support levels.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through to $127 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $132.90.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $130 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, resistance at $130 would likely leave Ethereum short of the first major resistance level.

Failure to move through to $127 levels could see Ethereum struggle later in the day.

A fall back through to sub-$120 levels would bring the first major support level at $116.42 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer well clear of the second major support level at $110.42.
