Solana (SOL) Breakout Setup Strengthens As Bulls Regain Full Control

Solana started a fresh increase above the $90 zone. SOL price is now consolidating and might aim for more gains above the $96 zone.

The price even smashed the $95 resistance. A high was formed at $96.85, and the price is now consolidating gains. There was a minor decline toward the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent upward move from the $87.61 swing low to the $96.85 high.

Solana is now trading above $92 and the 100-hourly simple moving average. Besides, there is a bullish trend line forming with support at $92.20 on the hourly chart of the SOL/USD pair.

On the upside, the price is facing resistance near $96.20. The next major resistance is near the $96.50 level. The main resistance could be $98. A successful close above the $98 resistance zone could set the pace for another steady increase. The next key resistance is $102. Any more gains might send the price toward the $105 level.

If SOL fails to rise above the $96.50 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $94.00 zone. The first major support is near the $92.20 level, the trend line, and the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent upward move from the $87.61 swing low to the $96.85 high.

A break below the $92.20 level might send the price toward the $90 support zone. If there is a close below the $90 support, the price could decline toward the $88 support in the near term.
