Will SOL Price $150 Support?

From the late January bottom of $80, the Solana (SOL) Price Prediction for April 2nd – Is Solana (SOL) price ready for further growth long-term? has witnessed an aggressive rally which propelled its price 166% to hit a 27-month high of $210. However, the recovery trend shifted sideways below this resistance amid the broader market consolidation.

On April 1st, the SOL price showcased its second reversal from $205 resistance, leading the 12% downfall trade at $179.8. According to the derivative market tracker, Coinglass, this downfall triggered a liquidation of $20 million in Long positions.

An analysis of the daily chart showed this reversal as the formation of a bearish reversal pattern called double top. This technical setup usually hits top formation in an asset followed by a significant correction trend. 

If the pattern holds true, the Solana price may plunge 8.5% to challenge the combined support of $162.3 and 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level. Losing this support intensifies supply pressure and pushes the coin price to $136 or $111.5 support.
