EOS price analysis: EOS/USD bullish above $8.00, but upside limited by the 100 SMA; EOS part in the Japan Blockchain Conference 2018 Tokyo

• The Bulls have the control but lack enough momentum to retrace higher.
• Various blockchain companies and at least 100 experts will take part in the 2-day conference.

EOS price after trading a subtle double pattern has corrected lower sliding below the short-term support formed at $8.40. EOS/USD has also broken below the ascending trendline, however, it is still keeping the support above $8.00. The Bulls have the control but lack enough momentum to retrace the price higher. There are a couple of resistance areas created by the moving averages: The 50 SMA is limiting gains at $8.2 while the 100 SMA is offering resistance slightly above at $8.5.

The next target to the upside is at $8.4 while the key resistance at $8.5 is a significant hurdle which could open the gate for EOS price to retrace steps back above $9.00. The moving average gap is reducing to confirm the bullish trend in the medium term. However, the stochastic on the 15′ timeframe chart is pointing south and is at 35% to show that selling pressure is still present. The traders must exercise patience to spot a strong bullish trend towards $8.4 while a break below $8.00 could have EOS price break down further below $7.8 and even test the recent lows at $7.00.
