For the day ahead

EOS would need to avoid a fall through the $2.5480 pivot level to take bring the first major resistance level at $2.5736 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from Tuesday’s high $2.5652.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level at $2.5736 would likely limit any upside.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $2.5480 pivot could see EOS struggle on the day.

A fall back through the pivot would bring the first major support level at $2.5303 into play.

Barring another crypto sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$2.50 levels. The second major support level at $2.5044 should limit any downside.
