EOS

EOS rallied by 6.91% on Monday. Reversing a 1.20% fall from Sunday, EOS ended the day at $3.2377.

It was a mixed start to the day. EOS rose to a late morning high $3.1264 before hitting reverse.

EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $3.0959 before falling to a late morning intraday low $2.9992.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $2.9456, EOS rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $3.2966.

EOS broke through the first major resistance level and the second major resistance level at $3.1642.

In spite of a late pullback, EOS avoided a fall back through the second major resistance level.

At the time of writing, EOS was up by 0.25% to $3.2457. A bullish start to the day saw EOS rise from an early morning low $3.2402 to a high $3.2502.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to avoid a fall through the $3.1778 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $3.3565.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from Monday’s high $3.2966.

Barring an extended crypto rally, however, the major first resistance level at $3.3565 would likely cap any upside.

A fall through the $3.1778 pivot would bring the first major support level at $3.0591 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$3.00 levels and the second major support level at $2.8804.
