The bulls are currently doing their best close to the support level at $180, as well as near the 50% Fibonacci correction level of the upswing from $165 swing low to $193 high. SOL is encountering a barrier level close to $185 on the way upward. The immediate key barrier level is close to $188.
If SOL successfully closes past the barrier level at $188, the bulls may be able to pave the way for a steady move to the upside. The immediate key barrier level is close to $192. If there are any additional gains, they may be able to push SOL towards $200.
On the other hand, the failure of the bulls to push SOL past the barrier level at $185 may empower the bears to initiate a new move to the downside. The first support level on the way downward is close to $180. The initial key support level is close to $175.
If SOL breaks beneath $175, the bears may be able to pull it towards $165. If it closes beneath the support level at $165, they may compel it to fall towards the support level at $155 over the coming few sessions.
