EOS fell by 2.56% on Friday. Reversing a 2.31% gain from Thursday, EOS ended the day at $3.4287.

A mixed start to the day saw EOS rise to an early morning intraday high $3.6212 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3.7749, EOS slid to a mid-day intraday low $3.3535.

EOS fell through the first major support level at $3.4250 before recovering. Finding support late on, EOS struck a high $3.6100 before falling back to $3.52 levels.

At the time of writing, EOS was up by 0.44% to $3.5444. A bullish start to the day saw EOS rise from an early morning low $3.5282 to a high $3.5908.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move back through to $3.60 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $3.6888.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from Friday’s high $3.6812.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely leave EOS short of $3.70 levels once more.

Failure to move back through to $3.60 levels could see EOS fall back into the red.

A fall back through the morning low to sub-$3.52 levels would bring the first major support level at $3.3611 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, EOS should continue to steer clear of sub-$3.30 levels.

Ripple’s XRP will need to break back through to $0.24 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.2451.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break out from the morning high $0.24144.
