The decline in cryptocurrencies continues for more than a month, which has been sending cryptos lower, losing considerable value during this time. Ethereum and Solana have been showing strong bullish momentum in recent months and they have been holding better than most cryptocurrencies during this retreat. Although, they are facing some decent support indicators, so let’s see if these indicators will hold and the trend will turn bullish again.
Solana Daily Chart Analysis – Will Solana Fall to $130?
Solana has been incredibly bullish since August, increasing from around $25 to $260, in two waves, first in August and then in October again.
