It's a bearish start to the day with support levels tested early. Failure to move through to key levels by late morning will see more losses ahead.

Ripple, Dash coin, Bitcoin, Monero and Ethereum

EOS

EOS slid by 2.01% on Thursday. Following on from a 0.13% decline on Wednesday, EOS ended the day at $3.5749.

It was a bearish start to the day. EOS slid from an early morning intraday high $3.6481 to an early afternoon intraday low $3.4948.

Steering clear of the major resistance levels, EOS fell through the first major support level at $3.5697.

Finding support at the second major support level at $3.4952, EOS recovered to $3.59 levels before a 2nd pullback.

EOS fell back through the first major support level at $3.5697 to $3.51 levels before late support kicked in.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 3.59% to $3.4465. A bearish start to the day saw EOS fall from an early morning high $3.5740 to a low $3.4051.

EOS/USD 24/01/20 Daily Chart

For the day ahead

EOS would need to break back through the first major support level and move through to $3.57 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $3.6504.

Support from the broader market would be needed for EOS to break back through to $3.50 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, however, EOS would likely fall well short of $3.60 levels on the day.

Failure to move through to $3.57 levels could see EOS struggle throughout the day.

A fall back through the second major support level at $3.4193 would bring sub-$3.40 levels into play.

We would expect EOS to steer well clear of the third major support level at $3.2660, however.

Ethereum would need to move through to $163 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $167.31.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $160 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, Ethereum will likely fall well short of $165 levels on the day.

In the event of a rebound, the first major resistance at $167.31 and Thursday high $167.79 would likely limit any upside.

Failure to move back through to $163 levels could see Ethereum spend the day in the red.

A fall through the first major support level at $157.96 would bring $155 levels into play before any recovery.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major support level at $153.53.
