Technical analysis
SOL moved into its higher price range (between $180 and $190) and swiftly rejected from that level as profit-taking began on "Trump trade" assets.
Price has since pulled back having broken below the local uptrend line and now testing the horizontal area of $162.
So far, the low $ 160 has acted as support. If that area cannot hold then the price will be back into it's old range (between $143 and $162).
A break below $160 and a Harris win could see the price retest the next two horizontal supports at $143 and then potentially as low as $131.
To the upside, $162 is the level to reclaim, and beyond that $180. Very likely we see $180 tagged if Trump wins.
The pullback from the $180's has more meaningfully reset the RSI which had put in a bearish divergence at the highs. The RSI has now pulled back to the middle territory of 47.
Next Support: $143
Next Resistance: $162
Direction: Neutral
Upside Target: $162
Downside Target: $143
Cryptonary's take
We currently look at SOL as just playing between the ranges, with the wider range between $131 and $180 and $143 to $162 as the tighter range for price. The coming day's price action very likely depends on the election outcome. A Trump win likely sends the price to the top of the range, and a Harris win is the opposite. Ultimately, if it is a Trump win, then $160 for SOL will look cheap a month from now. Hard to call here, it comes down to Tuesday/Wednesday's Election.
