• The 20 DMA strengthens the resistance power of the descending trendline
• The 24-hour trading volume in the Solana coin is $1.7 Billion, indicating an a1.98% gain

Thus, responding to a descending trendline, the SOL price slumped back to the May low support of $40 Moreover, the recent sell-off in the crypto market struck the final push to break the $40 barrier.

Price Analysis

Furthermore, after a few follow-up candles, the altcoin witnessed demand pressure near the $27-26 mark, indicating the price might revert to retest the breached support. The potential pullback would hit a strong supply zone formed by the aligned resistance level of $40, descending trendline, and 20-day EMA.

If the selling pressure persists, the SOL price will slump by 27%, down to the $20 psychological level.

Technical indicator

The rising MACD indicator slopes despite the falling price indicates weakness in the bearish momentum. This divergence could assist buyers in a bullish breakout from descending triangles.

The downsloping crucial EMAs(20, 50, 100, and 20) reflect a strong bear market as SOL price faces constant resistance from the fast-moving 20-day EMA. Thus, even if a potential rally simultaneously breaches the descending trendline and 20-day, the other EMAs are expected to limit bullish growth.

• Resistance level- $35 and $44.3
• Support levels- $20 and $16.78
