Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – October 3rd, 2020

Ethereum

Ethereum slid by 2.02% on Friday. Following on from a 1.97% decline on Thursday, Ethereum ended the day at $345.70.

A range-bound start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning intraday high $354.25 before hitting reverse.

Falling well short of the first major resistance level at $367.10, Ethereum slid to a late morning intraday low $334.19.

Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $341.86. Steering clear of the second major support level at $330.81 briefly revisited $347 levels before easing back.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.15% to $345.18. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $346.08 before falling to a low $345.18.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid a fall through the $344.71 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $355.24.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break back through to $350 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $354.25 would likely cap any upside.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $344.71 pivot would bring the first major support level at $335.18 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should avoid the second major support level at $324.65.

Litecoin would need to move through the $45.05 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $46.85.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $46.96 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of another breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $47 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $48.76.

Failure to move through the $45.05 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $43.14 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$42 levels. The second major support level sits at $41.34.
