Solana Price Reclaims $250

There was a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance at $245 on the hourly chart of the SOL/USD pair. The pair even cleared the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $272 swing high to the $230 low.
Solana is now trading above $250 and the 100-hourly simple moving average. On the upside, the price is facing resistance near the $262 level or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $272 swing high to the $230 low.
The next major resistance is near the $272 level. The main resistance could be $280. A successful close above the $280 resistance zone could set the pace for another steady increase. The next key resistance is $292. Any more gains might send the price toward the $300 level.
Another Decline in SOL?
If SOL fails to rise above the $262 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $250 zone and the 100-hourly simple moving average.
The first major support is near the $240 level. A break below the $240 level might send the price toward the $230 zone. If there is a close below the $230 support, the price could decline toward the $215 support in the near term.
