Solana Forms Support At $20 Level

Solana price was in an upward channel since the start of March forming higher highs and higher lows. The price has recently broken below the trend line and created a support at $20 level. The current price action shows that the price might be headed towards retesting the upward channel and moving further downwards.

The break of support line of the upward channel happened after 59 days. The breakdown from the supporting trendline indicates the end of the upward trend. Like most of the Altcoins, Solana is also showing weakness in the market. 

If Sol price is able to break below $20, there is a higher probability for the price to push down till $16 level. The support of $20 has held the price several times previously. The situation has been uncertain for US markets as if the macroeconomics situation were to improve in the face of decline in US inflation, investors could possibly witness a new inflow of capital in the crypto-market. 

If price can rise above $23 level, there might be a possibility that it can reach $26 level and further more till towards the annual highs. As the Bitcoin is headed towards $27,000 today, Solana price has become one of the notable gainers from the large-cap Altcoin. The total crypto market capitalization has added over $30 Billion since yesterday and is currently $1.2 Billion.
