Cryptonary's take

There's no need to go heavy in detail here. SOL is just a range bound between $220 and $263, and we're expecting that to continue in the short term. Of course, a breakdown of the key levels ($220 and $263) will be the key thing to watch. Be patient with this and just let time give you/us more candles and, therefore, more information. There's no point getting stuck into (trading) something that's in the middle of a larger range. If we had to call it, we'd say there's more chance of a retest of $220 first than a retest of $260.
