Solana Price Forecast: SOL breakout of the descending trendline

Solana price broke out and closed above the descending trendline (drawn by connecting multiple highs since May 24) on Saturday and rallied to close above its 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $151.48 the next day. At the time of writing on Monday, it hovers around the 50-day EMA level at $151.48.

If SOL continues its upward trend, it could extend the rally toward its daily resistance level at $160. A successful close above this level could extend additional gains to retest its next daily resistance at $184.13.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart reads 52, above its neutral level of 50, indicating that bullish momentum is gaining traction. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) on the daily chart also displayed a bullish crossover on Saturday, providing a buy signal and indicating an upward trend.
