Moreover, EOS surpassed LTC in terms of market cap to become the 5th largest coin in the market.
On the weekly chart, EOS mostly moved in a timid manner until recently. Most of the week, the coin faced resistance between $5.9 to $6, which acted as a massive barrier on its path. However, various support levels between $5.7 and $5.8 did not allow a plunge in the coin’s prices.
On the daily chart, the coin gained an upward momentum and with a strong trend went past $9.0. Though the coin faced minor resistances on its way up, the trend was strong enough to pass through them. Currently, due to some peak resistance at $9.0, EOS has taken a downturn. However, the impact of the trend is still there and with the influx of the optimistic traders, the coin can zoom up more.

Though the coin dropped to $13 after the rise, it gained the upward momentum again and zoomed beyond $14.5 to touch the weekly peak.
However, the coin is facing some peak resistance recently as it suddenly dropped to $13.6.
