For the day ahead

EOS would need to break back through the first major resistance level to support a run at the second major resistance level at $3.8173.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break back through the morning high $3.7526.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely pin EOS back from $3.8 levels.

Failure to move back through the first major resistance level could see EOS hit reverse.

A fall back through to sub-$3.60 levels would bring the first major support level at $3.4997 into play.

Barring another broad-based crypto sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$3.50 levels on the day.

Ethereum would need to move through to $169 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $170.26.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Ethereum to break out from the morning high $169.33.

A fall through to sub-$164.70 levels would bring the first major support level at $161.76 into play before any recovery.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$160 levels on the day.
