It's a bearish start to the day as the majors continue to struggle. Failure to move through key levels by late morning would bring support levels into play.
EOS rose by 0.06% on Friday. Following a 0.88% decline on Thursday, EOS ended the day at $2.4839.
It was a particularly choppy start to the day, with EOS rising to an early morning high $2.4938 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the major resistance levels, EOS slid to a mid-morning intraday low $2.3889.
EOS fell through the first major support level at $2.4336 before rebounding to a late morning intraday high $2.5178.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $2.5322, EOS slid back to sub-$2.45 levels before finding support.
A late move back through to $2.48 levels reversed the losses on the day.
At the time of writing, EOS was down by 0.22% to $2.4785. A bearish start to the day saw EOS fall from an early morning high $2.4825 to a low $2.4785.
EOS left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
EOS would need to avoid a fall through the $2.4635 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $2.5382.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from Friday’s high $2.5178.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely leave EOS short of $2.60 levels once more. The second major resistance level sits at $2.5911.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $2.4635 pivot could see EOS fall further back.
A fall through sub-$2.46 levels would bring the first major support level at $2.4093 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off, EOS should steer clear of the second major support level at $2.3346. A key support level sitting at $2.40 will likely come back into play on the day.
Major Support Level: $2.4093

Ethereum fell by 1.11% on Friday. Following on from a 0.92% decline on Thursday, Ethereum ended the day at $229.44.
It was a mixed start to the day. Ethereum rose to an early morning intraday high $233.25 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $236, Ethereum slid to an early afternoon intraday low $227.30.
Finding support at the first major support level at $227.81, Ethereum bounced back to $231 levels before easing back.
At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.35% to $228.64. A bearish start to the day saw Ethereum fall from an early morning high $229.60 to a low $228.25.
Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
Ethereum would need to move through the $230 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $232.69.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $230 levels.
Barring another extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $233.25 should cap any upside.
In the event of another breakout, expect a run at the second major resistance level at $235.95 before any pullback.
Failure to move through the $230 pivot could see Ethereum spend yet another day in the red.
A fall through to sub-$228 levels would bring the first major support level at $226.74 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$220 levels. The second major support level at $224.05 should limit any downside on the day.
Major Support Level: $226.74

Ripple’s XRP will need to move through the $0.1830 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.1868.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break out from Friday’s high $0.18677.
