EOS, Ethereum and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – August 17th, 2020

EOS

EOS rallied by 4.11% on Sunday. Following on from a 14% jump on Saturday, EOS ended the week up by 28.09% to $3.8792.

It was a mixed start to the day. EOS rose to an early morning high $3.8724 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the major resistance levels, EOS slid to a mid-day intraday low $3.4824 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $3.3450, EOS rallied to a mid-afternoon intraday high $3.9863.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3.9922, EOS eased back to wrap up the week at $3.8 levels.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 0.05% to $3.8771. A mixed start to the day saw EOS rise to an early morning high $3.8985 before falling to a low $3.8532.

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

For the day ahead

EOS would need to avoid a fall through the $3.7826 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $4.0829.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to breakout from Sunday’s high $3.9863.

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

A fall through the pivot level at $3.7826 would bring the first major support level at $3.5790 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$3.50 levels. The second major support level sits at $3.2787.
