Solana Price Reclaims $200 Solana price formed a base above $175
and started a decent upward move, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. SOL
was able to climb above the $180 and $185 resistance levels. The
bulls pushed it above the $188 resistance and then $200. A high was
formed at $206 and the price is now consolidating gains near the
23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $186 swing
high to the $206 low. Solana is now trading above $195 and the
100-hourly simple moving average. There is also a connecting
bullish trend line forming with support at $196 on the hourly chart
of the SOL/USD pair. On the upside, the price is facing resistance
near the $205 level. The next major resistance is near the $212
level. The main resistance could be $220. A successful close above
the $220 resistance zone could set the pace for another steady
increase. The next key resistance is $232. Any more gains might
send the price toward the $245 level. Another Decline in SOL? If
SOL fails to rise above the $205 resistance, it could start another
decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $196 zone and
the trend line. The first major support is near the $190 level or
the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $186
swing high to the $206 low. A break below the $190 level might send
the price toward the $185 zone. If there is a close below the $185
support, the price could decline toward the $172 support in the
near term. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for SOL/USD
