EOS, Ethereum and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – August 18th, 2020

EOS

EOS fell by 2.60% on Monday. Partially reversing a 4.11% gain on Sunday, EOS ended the day at $3.7793.

It was a bearish start to the day. EOS fell to an early afternoon intraday low $3.5750 before finding support.

The pullback saw EOS fall through the first major support level at $3.5790, before striking an intraday high $3.9235.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $4.0829, EOS fell back to sub-$3.80 levels and into the red.

At the time of writing, EOS was up by 0.52% to $3.7991. A bullish start to the day saw EOS rise from an early morning low $3.7703 to a high $3.8023.

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

For the day ahead

EOS would need to avoid a fall through the $3.7854 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $3.9174.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break back through to $3.90 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Monday’s high $3.9235 would likely cap any upside.

Failure to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $3.7854 would bring the first major support level at $3.6473 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, EOS should steer clear of sub-$3.60 levels. The second major support level sits at $3.5153.

Looking at the Technical Indicators

Pivot Level: $3.7854

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the $433.17 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $445.83.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level should continue to cap any upside.

For the day ahead

Ripple’s XRP will need to avoid a fall through the $0.3142 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.3289.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break out from Monday’s high $0.32757.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level should cap any upside.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $0.3142 pivot would bring the 23.6% FIB of $0.3134 and the first major support level at $0.3008 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, Ripple’s XRP should avoid sub-$0.30 levels on the day.

The second major support level sits at $0.2860.

Pivot Level: $0.3142
