It's a bearish start to the day. Failure to move through the day's pivot levels would bring support levels into play.

Ripple, Dash coin, Bitcoin, Monero and Ethereum

EOS

EOS slid by 4.47% on Thursday. Following on from a 0.15% decline on Wednesday, EOS ended the day at $2.9775.

It was another mixed start to the day. EOS rose to an early morning intraday high $3.1505 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3.1758, EOS fell to a late afternoon intraday low $2.8487.

The reversal saw EOS fall through the day’s major support levels before briefly revisiting $2.97 levels.

While moving back through the third major support level at $2.8866, resistance at $3.00 pinned EOS back late on.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 0.26% to $2.9697. A bearish start to the day saw EOS fall from an early morning high $2.9849 to a low $2.9668.

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

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move through the $2.9922 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $3.1358.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break back through to $3.10 levels.

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

Failure to move through the pivot level at $2.9922 would bring the first major support level at $2.8340 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, EOS should avoid sub-$2.80 levels. The second major support level sits at $2.6904.
