It's a bearish start to the day with support levels being tested early. Failure to move through to key levels will weigh on the day.

Ripple, Dash coin, Bitcoin, Monero and Ethereum

EOS

EOS fell by 0.28% on Sunday. Partially reversing a 0.65% gain from Saturday, EOS ended the week up by 6.23% to $2.5029.

A bearish start to the day saw EOS fall to an early morning intraday low $2.4582 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $2.4443, EOS rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $2.5962.

EOS broke through the first major resistance level at $2.5647 before sliding back late in the day.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 3.60% to $2.4129. A bearish start to the day saw EOS fall from an early morning high $2.5021 to a low $2.3314.

EOS fell through the first major support level at $2.4420 and the second major support level at $2.3811 before finding support.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move through the first major support level to $2.52 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $2.5800.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break back through to $2.50 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $2.50 would likely leave EOS short of the first major resistance level.

Failure to move through to $2.52 levels could see EOS fall deeper into the red.

A fall back through the second major support level at $2.3811 would bring the third major support level at $2.2431 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$2.30 levels.
