Solana Price Visits Key Support
After a steady increase, Solana struggled to clear the $25 resistance zone. SOL formed a high at $24.77 and recently started a fresh decline.
There was a move below the $24.00 and $23.50 levels. The bears pushed the price below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $18.75 swing low to the $24.77 high. There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $22.00 on the 4-hour chart of the SOL/USD pair.
SOL is now trading below $22.00 and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours). It is also showing bearish signs below $22, like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
However, the bulls are now protecting the $21.00 support. It is near the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $18.75 swing low to the $24.77 high. On the upside, immediate resistance is near the $22.00 level and the trend line.

The first major resistance is near the $22.50 level. A clear move above the $22.50 resistance might send the price toward the $23.50 resistance. The next key resistance is near $24.00. Any more gains might send the price toward the $25.00 level.
More Losses in SOL?
If SOL fails to recover above the $22.00 resistance, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $21.00 level.
The first major support is near the $20.30 level. If there is a close below the $20.00 support, the price could decline toward the $20.00 support. In the stated case, there is a risk of more downsides toward the $18.80 support in the near term.
