For EOS, its daily gains were quickly lost and the price started to consolidate between the $2.682 and $2.651 levels. At press time, EOS was valued at $2.667
The dotted lines of the Parabolic SAR below the candles, still however signaled an uptrend. The MACD indicator on the other hand was highly bearish, adding on to the pressures of selling sentiment witnessed today.
For now, EOS bulls need to attain control of the pivot point at $2.667 above the trendline in order to regain a bullish sentiment.
