EOS Price Analysis: Block.One to launch a suite of services, EOS unaffected

EOS has charted the death cross pattern in its daily chart. The Ethereum killer has faced repeated rejections at the 200-day SMA.

On October 4, EOS bounced up from the $2.48 support line and reached $2.70, where it faced rejection from the 200-day SMA and dipped slightly to $2.60. The 200-day SMA has crossed over the 50-day SMA to chart the death cross pattern, a heavily bearish sign. To add further credence to our bearish outlook, the MACD also shows decreasing bullish momentum.
