SOL Breaks Two-Year Uptrend

Analyst Dami Defi pointed out that Solana has now lost its two-year uptrend. He explained that this trendline had been tested several times prior to the week’s breakdown. “Repeated rejections at the $200 to $280 zone have resulted in lower highs, now placing this level in a confirmed downtrend.” 

He also noted that “any rallies above $100 should be considered relief rather than the start of a new trend.” He also identified $70 as the next level to watch for the coin, followed by $50 if the pressure continues.

Dami also said that the token now has only one signal left to be bullish. “SOL needs to close above $100 and recover above the broken trendline.”
