Solana is now trading below $185 and the 100-hourly simple moving average. It is also below the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $173 swing low to the $209 high.
On the upside, the price is facing resistance near the $182 level. The next major resistance is near the $184 level. The main resistance could be $188. A successful close above the $188 resistance zone could set the pace for another steady increase. The next key resistance is $192. Any more gains might send the price toward the $200 level.
More Losses In SOL?

A break below the $172 level might send the price toward the $162 support zone. If there is a close below the $162 support, the price could decline toward the $150 support in the near term.
