Solana Price

On the upside, the price is facing resistance near the $154 level. The next major resistance is near the $155 level. The main resistance could be $162. A successful close above the $162 resistance zone could set the pace for another steady increase. The next key resistance is $175. Any more gains might send the price toward the $180 level.

Pullback in SOL?

If SOL fails to rise above the $155 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $150 zone. The first major support is near the $145 level.

A break below the $145 level might send the price toward the $138 zone. If there is a close below the $138 support, the price could decline toward the $132 support in the near term.
