Bulls on the Loose: Can Solana Smash the $160 Barrier?

by

It appears that Solana, that plucky little cryptocurrency, has got its mojo working again, old chap! 🚀 After a spot of bother, it has started a fresh increase above the $155 zone, and the bulls are rubbing their hands in glee, thinking they might just power past that pesky $160 wall. 💪

  • SOL price has started a ripping upward move above the $150 and $155 levels, leaving the US Dollar in its dust.
  • The price is now trading above $152, with the 100-hourly simple moving average looking like a distant memory.
  • A key bullish trend line is forming, with support at $155 on the hourly chart of the SOL/USD pair, which is a jolly good show, if I do say so myself.
  • If the pair can clear the $160 resistance zone, it might just start a fresh increase, and the bulls will be dancing in the aisles.

Solana price, much like a spirited filly, has started a decent increase after clearing the $152 resistance, following in the footsteps of those cryptocurrency thoroughbreds, Bitcoin and Ethereum. SOL climbed above the $155 level, and the party is in full swing, old bean! 🎉

However, the price is facing a bit of a hurdle at $160 and $162, which is a bit of a bother, but not the end of the world, by any means. A high is formed at $159.24, and the price is now consolidating gains above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $148 swing low to the $160 high, which is all a bit of a mouthful, if you ask me.

Solana is now trading above $155, with the 100-hourly simple moving average looking like a relic of the past. There is also a key bullish trend line forming, with support at $155 on the hourly chart of the SOL/USD pair, which is a cracking good show, if I do say so myself.

On the upside, the price is facing resistance near the $160 level, which is a bit of a nuisance, but the bulls are undeterred. The next major resistance is near the $162 level, and the main resistance could be $165, which is a bit of a challenge, but not insurmountable, by any means. A successful close above the $165 resistance zone could set the pace for another steady increase, and the bulls will be over the moon! 🌕

If SOL fails to rise above the $160 resistance, it could start another decline, which would be a bit of a disappointment, old chap. Initial support on the downside is near the $155 zone and the trend line, which is a bit of a safety net, if you will. The first major support is near the $152 level, or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $148 swing low to the $160 high, which is all a bit of a technical jargon, if you ask me.

A break below the $152 level might send the price toward the $145 zone, which would be a bit of a blow, old bean. If there is a close below the $145 support, the price could decline toward the $136 support in the near term, which would be a bit of a disaster, if you ask me.

Technical Indicators, and all that rot:

Hourly MACD – The MACD for SOL/USD is gaining pace in the bullish zone, which is a cracking good show, if I do say so myself.

Hourly Hours RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for SOL/USD is above the 50 level, which is a jolly good sign, old chap.

Major Support Levels – $155 and $152, which are a bit of a safety net, if you will.

Major Resistance Levels – $160 and $162, which are a bit of a challenge, but not insurmountable, by any means.
