Holding above the first major support level at $2.4477, EOS rose to a late morning intraday high $2.5461.

Falling well short of the first major resistance level at $2.5678, EOS fell back to sub-$2.50 levels by late morning.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move back through to $2.53 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $2.5640 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from Monday’s high $2.5461.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the major first resistance level would likely limit any upside on the day.

Failure to move back through to $2.53 levels could see EOS slide deeper into the red.

A fall through the morning low to sub-$2.5070 levels would bring the first major support level at $2.4679 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of the second major support level at $2.4109.

For the day ahead

Ripple’s XRP will need to avoid sub-$0.1940 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.1991.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break out Monday’s high $0.19716.
