Solana started a fresh increase from the $162 zone. SOL price is now 
consolidating gains and might aim for more gains above the $172 zone. SOL 
price started a fresh upward move above the $165 and $166 levels against the 
US Dollar. The price is now trading above $165 and the 100-hourly simple 
moving average. There is a contracting triangle forming with resistance at 
$168 on the hourly chart of the SOL/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The 
pair could start a fresh increase if it clears the $172 resistance zone. 
Solana Price Eyes Upside Break Solana price started a decent increase after it 
found support near the $162 zone, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. SOL climbed above 
the $165 level to enter a short-term positive zone. The price even smashed the 
$1682 resistance. The bulls were able to push the price above the 50% Fib 
retracement level of the downward move from the $172 swing high to the $162 
low. However, the bears are active near the $170 zone. The 76.4% Fib 
retracement level of the downward move from the $172 swing high to the $162 
low is acting as a resistance. There is also a contracting triangle forming 
with resistance at $168 on the hourly chart of the SOL/USD pair. Solana is now 
trading above $165 and the 100-hourly simple moving average. On the upside, 
the price is facing resistance near the $170 level. The next major resistance 
is near the $172 level. The main resistance could be $175. A successful close 
above the $175 resistance zone could set the pace for another steady increase. 
The next key resistance is $182. Any more gains might send the price toward 
the $192 level. Are Downsides Limited In SOL? If SOL fails to rise above the 
$170 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the 
downside is near the $164 zone. The first major support is near the $162 
level. A break below the $162 level might send the price toward the $152 
support zone. If there is a close below the $150 support, the price could 
decline toward the $145 support in the near term. Technical Indicators Hourly 
MACD – The MACD for SOL/USD is losing pace in the bullish zone. Hourly Hours 
RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for SOL/USD is above the 50 level. 
Major Support Levels – $164 and $162. Major Resistance Levels – $170 and $172.
