It's back into the red for the majors. Failure to move through key levels by late morning could well lead to heavier losses on the day.

Coins of crypto currency are presented on a dark background. Virtual money concept.

EOS

EOS tumbled by 6.10% on Monday. Partially reversing a 7.03% rally from the previous day, EOS ended the day at $4.1278.

A bearish start to the day saw EOS slide from an early morning intraday high $4.4124 to a late afternoon intraday low $3.9108.

EOS fell through the first major support level at $4.1910 and the second major support level at $3.9826.

Finding support late on, EOS moved back through the second major support level to wrap up the day at $4.1278.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 1.45% to $4.0678. A bearish start to the day saw EOS fall from an early morning high $4.1501 to a low $4.0394.

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

EOS/USD 25/02/20 Daily Chart

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move back through to $4.15 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $4.3899.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from the early morning high $4.1501.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, however, EOS would likely fall short of $4.30 levels on the day.

Failure to move back through to $4.15 levels could see EOS fall deeper into the red.

A fall back through the morning low $4.0394 would bring the first major support level at $3.8883 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, EOS should continue to steer well clear of sub-$3.80 levels.

Looking at the Technical Indicators

Major Support Level: $3.8883

Major Resistance Level: $4.3899

23.6% FIB Retracement Level: $6.62

Ethereum

Ethereum fell 3.69% on Monday. Partially reversing a 5.17% gain from Sunday, Ethereum ended the day at $265.31.

Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $265.80 and the 23.6% FIB of $257.

The first major support level at $265.80 limited Ethereum’s recovery late in the day, however.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $270 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $270 would likely cap any upside.

Failure to move through to $266.50 levels could see Ethereum fall deeper into the red.

A fall through back through the morning low $260.62 would bring 23.6% FIB of $257.00 into play.

Barring a broad-based crypto sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$250 support levels.

The first major support level at $254.87 should limit any downside.
