Solana Price Trims Gains and Revisit $140
Solana price started a downside correction after it failed to clear the $162 zone. SOL dipped below the $155 support level and moved into a short-term bearish zone like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
There was a break below a rising channel with support at $154 on the hourly chart of the SOL/USD pair. The pair dipped below the $145 level. It even tested the $140 zone. A low was formed at $141.29 and the price is now consolidating losses.
Solana is now trading well below $150 and the 100-hourly simple moving average. On the upside, the price is facing resistance near the $145 level. It is close to the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $158 swing high to the $141 low.
The next major resistance is near the $150 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $158 swing high to the $141 low. A successful close above the $150 resistance could set the pace for another steady increase. The next key resistance is near $155. Any more gains might send the price toward the $162 level.
