Solana prices are falling again

Solana’s price failed to stay above $67 and began a downward correction, much like Bitcoin and Ethereum. SOL dropped below $66 and $65 to enter a short-term bear zone.

There was a move below the 50% Fib retracement level of the bullish wave from a low of $60.12 to a high of $67.90. On the hourly chart of the SOL/USD pair, there was a break below the bullish trend line with support at $66. The price even tested the support at $63.20.

Solana is currently trading below $65 and the 100-hour straightforward moving average. On the other hand, the price faces resistance near the $65 level. The next major resistance is near the $66 level. The main resistance could be $67.20. A successful close above the resistance zone at $67.20 could set the pace for further sustained growth. The next key resistance is $68. Any further gains could push the price towards the $70 level.

Down break in SOL?

If SOL fails to break above the resistance at $66, another decline could begin. Initial downside support is located near the $63.10 zone and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the rising wave from a low of $60.12 to a high of $67.90. The first major support is located near the $62.20 level.

A break below the $62.20 level could push the price towards the $60 support zone. If a close occurs below the $60 support, the price could drop towards the $55 support in the near future.
