Solana Price Aims For More Gains

Solana price remained supported above $125 and started a fresh increase, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. SOL gained pace and traded above the $132 resistance level.

The bulls pushed the price above the $142 and $145 levels. They are now facing hurdles near $148 and $150. A high was formed at $147 and the price is now consolidating gains above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $126 swing low to the $147 swing high.

Solana Price

On the upside, the price is facing resistance near the $148 level. The next major resistance is near the $150 level. The main resistance could be $155. A successful close above the $155 resistance zone could set the pace for another steady increase. The next key resistance is $160. Any more gains might send the price toward the $165 level.

Another Decline in SOL?

If SOL fails to rise above the $150 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $142 zone. The first major support is near the $136 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $126 swing low to the $147 swing high.

A break below the $136 level might send the price toward the $130 zone. If there is a close below the $130 support, the price could decline toward the $125 support in the near term.

Technical Indicators

  • Hourly MACD – The MACD for SOL/USD is losing pace in the bullish zone.

  • Hourly Hours RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for SOL/USD is above the 50 level.

  • Major Support Levels – $142 and $136.
