Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple’s XRP – Daily Tech Analysis – October 24th, 2020

Ethereum

Ethereum fell by 1.23% on Friday. Partially reversing a 5.96% rally from Thursday, Ethereum ended the day at $409.52.

It was a mixed start to the day. Ethereum rose to a late morning intraday high $419.48 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $427.00, Ethereum slid to a late afternoon intraday low $401.51.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $396.86, Ethereum recovered to $410 levels before easing back.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was down by 0.22% to $408.60. A mixed start to the day saw Ethereum rise to an early morning high $410.09 before falling to a low $407.78.

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

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to move through the $410.17 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $418.83.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from $415 levels.

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

In the event of a breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $425 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $428.14.

Failure to move through the $410.17 pivot would bring the first major support level at $400.86 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should steer clear of sub-$390 levels. The second major support level at $392.20 should limit any downside.

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

Failure to move back through the $55.22 pivot level would bring the 23.6% FIB and the first major support level at $53.40 into play.
