SOLUSD Solana

The price of Solana is facing an extremely important trend decision in the 1-day chart. Will the uptrend continue or will it be invalidated? The latter could threaten a drop to the psychologically important $20 level. A look at the 1-day chart shows that SOL failed in several attempts at the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) (blue) in mid-April. The indicator has an extremely high significance for the long-term trend. While Bitcoin and numerous altcoins are already trading above the 200-day EMA, SOL is still stuck below the trend indicator as a consequence of the FTX crash. After falling below the 50-day EMA (orange) on Friday, the SOL price has fought its way back above the level today. Still, the price is at a key support, an ascending trendline (black) that has proven directional since the December 28, 2022 low at $7.98. A retracement could wipe out the uptrend and trigger another drop to $20. On the other hand, a break above the 200-day EMA currently at $25.13 could turn the chart picture in favor of the bulls. SOL Bull Case Prevails Solana rose to $25.96 in mid-April, but could not sustain the breakout above the 200-day EMA. In order to start a new attempt towards the north, Solana must break above $22.78 on a daily closing basis. If a stabilization above this resistance level succeeds, the buy side could again target the 200-day EMA. Only when this major trend line is broken dynamically, the yearly high at $27.13 comes into focus, where the 38.2% Fibonacci level is also located. If the Bitcoin price also rises to a new high for the year at this point, the SOL price could shoot straight up to the $30.44 resistance level. However, Solana is likely to make a stop here. The next target area after a consolidation would then be the 50% Fibonacci level at around $33. Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Rebounding After A Major Drop, Will It Recover Previous Losses? In a bearish scenario, Solana falls below the black uptrend line and then also breaks the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement at $19.39 on the daily close. In this case, Solana is likely to trend towards the March 10 low near $16. Bullish News From Solana Ecosystem Fundamentals also point to a bull case for Solana.
