Solana Faces Its First Hurdle At $164

The price of Solana (SOL) has resumed its upward trend after falling to a low of $157.

Solana price long-term prediction: bullish

The upswing from July 11 was halted around the $168 level, as Coinidol.com wrote last week. According to the price indicator, Solana is expected to rise to a high of 1.618 Fibonacci extension or $180.35.

Currently, the uptrend is hitting a first resistance at the high of $164. On the upside, buyers are facing an uphill battle to bring the altcoin to the expected price level. The price of cryptocurrencies must rise to overcome the barriers of $164 and $168.

However, the bullish scenario will become meaningless if buyers fail to overcome the resistance levels. Solana will be forced to trade below the $164 level but above the moving average lines. Meanwhile, the price of the cryptocurrency has reached an initial resistance of $164. Solana is now worth $161.
