Solana Price Analysis: Downtrend Intensifies as SOL Fights to Stay Above $160

Duo Nine Dec 20, 2021 16:55
SOL has been in a downtrend since the all-time high at $260 and there are no signs this will change soon.

Key Support levels: $166, $146

Key Resistance level: $187

SOL completed a bearish MACD cross on the weekly timeframe after the all-time high and this downtrend only intensified since. SOL has to keep its price above the key support at $166 if there is any hope to stop the current decline. If it fails, the price might fall lower in search of new support. The current resistance is at $187, where SOL was sharply rejected.

Technical Indicators

Trading Volume: Volume has remained constant during this downtrend, and bears do not appear satisfied yet.

RSI: The RSI on daily is falling and has remained in the bearish zone (under 50 points). It seems likely to drop again, and the hope is that if it reaches overbought conditions, the bulls will bounce back.

MACD: The MACD on the daily timeframe did a bullish cross three days ago, but this now appears to reverse back down. The weekly MACD is firmly bearish and likely will stay so for a few weeks at least.

Bias

The current bias is bearish considering the indicators.

Short-Term Prediction for SOL Price

SOL’s correction will most likely continue, and there may be at least one more Elliot wave down before a potential reversal. If the current support at $166 fails, then SOL has another chance to reverse the downtrend at $146.
