EOS, Ethereum and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – August 17th, 2020

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid a fall through the $427.74 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $442.96.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Sunday’s high $437.00.

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

A fall through the $427.74 pivot would bring the first major support level at $418.47 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$400 levels. The second major support level at $403.25 should limit any downside.
