EOS

EOS fell by 0.63% on Wednesday. Reversing a 0.55% gain from Tuesday, EOS ended the day at $2.5433.

Coming up well short of the major resistance levels, EOS fell through the first major support level at $2.5180.

Steering clear of sub-$2.50 levels, EOS recovered to $2.54 levels to limit the loss on the day.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 0.55% to $2.5292. A bearish start to the day saw EOS fall from an early morning high $2.5345 to a low $2.5292.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move through the $2.54 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $2.5705.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from Wednesday’s high $2.5670.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Wednesday’s high would likely cap any upside.

Failure to move through the $2.54 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2.5125 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, EOS should steer clear of the second major support level at $2.4818.
