It's a bearish start to the weekend as the majors hit reverse after a mixed Friday. Support levels are in play early in the day.
EOS rose by 0.08% on Friday. Following on from a 1.12% gain on Thursday, EOS ended the day at $4.5891.
A bullish start to the day saw EOS rally to an early morning intraday high $4.6945 before hitting reverse.
EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $4.6913 before falling to a mid-day intraday low $4.5030.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $4.4541, EOS broke back through the first major resistance level before easing back.
At the time of writing, EOS was down by 2.5% to $4.4745. A particularly bearish start to the day saw EOS slide from an early morning high $4.5913 to a low $4.4338.
Steering clear of the major resistance levels, EOS fell through the first major support level at $4.4966.
EOS would need to move back through the first major support level to $4.5960 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $4.6881.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break back through to $4.60 levels.
Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $4.60 would likely leave EOS short of the first major resistance level at $4.6881.
Failure to move through to $4.5960 levels would likely see EOS struggle throughout the day.
A fall back through the morning low $4.4338 would bring the second major support level at $4.4040 into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, EOS should continue to steer of sub-$4.40 levels.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Friday’s high $224.78.
In the event of a broad-based crypto rebound, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
Failure to move through to $220.50 levels could see Ethereum spend the day in the red.
A fall back through the first major support level at $215.85 would bring sub-$210 levels into play before any recovery.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of the second major resistance level at $208.47.
