Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – October 8th, 2020

Ethereum

Ethereum rose by 0.26% on Wednesday. Following a 3.69% slide on Tuesday, Ethereum ended the day at $341.68.

A bearish start to the day saw Ethereum slide to an early morning intraday low $332.87 before making a move.

Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $333.23 before rising to a mid-afternoon intraday high of $342.83.

Falling well short of the first major resistance level at $351.83, Ethereum fell back to $336 levels before finding support.

A late move back through to $341 levels reversed losses from the day.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.20% to $340.98. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high of $342.36 before falling to a low $340.70.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid a fall through the $339.13 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $345.38.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Wednesday’s high $342.83.

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

Failure to avoid a fall through the $345.38 pivot would bring the first major support level at $335.42 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should continue to avoid sub-$330 levels. The second major support level sits at $329.17.

It was a mixed start to the day. Litecoin slid to an early morning intraday low $45.03 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $44.97, Litecoin rallied to a late intraday high $46.92.

For the day ahead

Litecoin would need to avoid a fall through the $46.18 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $47.32.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to break back through to $47 levels.

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

In the event of another breakout, Litecoin could test resistance at $48 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $48.07.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $46.18 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $45.43 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off on the day, however, Litecoin should steer clear of sub-$44 levels. The second major support level at $44.29 should limit any downside.

For the day ahead

Ripple’s XRP will need to avoid a fall through the $0.2470 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.2530.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ripple’s XRP to break out from Wednesday’s high $0.25127.

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

In the event of an extended rally, the second major resistance level at $0.2573 would likely come into play. Resistance at $0.26 would likely pin Ripple’s XRP back, however.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $0.2470 pivot would bring the first major support level at $0.2428 into play.

Barring another extended crypto sell-off, Ripple’s XRP should steer clear of sub-$0.24 levels. The second major support level sits at $0.2368.

Looking at the Technical Indicators

First Major Support Level: $0.2428

Pivot Level: $0.2470
