EOS, Ethereum and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – August 12th, 2020

EOS

EOS slid by 7.30% on Tuesday. Reversing a 6.91% rally from Monday, EOS ended the day at $3.0037.

It was another mixed start to the day. EOS rose to an early morning intraday high $3.2950 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $3.3565, EOS tumbled to a late intraday low $2.8604.

EOS fell through the first major support level at $3.0591 and the second major support level at $2.8804.

Finding late support, EOS moved back through the second major support level to limit the loss on the day.

At the time of writing, EOS was down by 0.30% to $2.9947. A bearish start to the day saw EOS fall from an early morning high $3.0047 to a low $2.9937.

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

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move through the $3.0530 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $3.2457.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break back through to $3.20 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, EOS would likely fall short of the major first resistance level and Tuesday’s high $3.2950.

Failure to move through the $3.0530 pivot would bring the first major support level at $2.8111 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of the second major support level at $2.6184.

Ethereum

Ethereum slid by 4.27% on Tuesday. Reversing a 1.38% gain from Monday, Ethereum ended the day at $378.88.

More significantly, Ethereum also fell through the 38.2% FIB of $367 before finding support.

Late in the day, Ethereum moved back through the 38.2% FIB to wrap up the day at $378 levels. The second major support level at $379.04 pinned Ethereum back.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the $380.65 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $396.53.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $390 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high $398.3 should cap any upside.

Failure to move through the $380.65 pivot would bring the 38.2% FIB of $367 and the first major support level at $363.00 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$350 and the second major support level at $347.12.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break back through to $0.30 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high $0.30744 should cap any upside.

Failure to move through the $0.2858 pivot would bring the first major support level at $0.2641 into play.
