Solana price has been trading inside the $51.16 to $63.95 range for nearly three weeks. With the Relative Strength Index (RSI) clearing the 50 mean level and the Awesome Oscillator (AO) flipping the zero level, a bullish outlook is more likely.
A daily candlestick close that flips the range high of $63.95 into a support level is the signal that Solana price could go higher. Investors looking to open long positions could do so on the retest of this level.
The next target of $70.35 is roughly 10% away.

On the other hand, if Solana price is rejected at $63.95, it could drop 10% and retest the $57.55 support level. A breakdown of this barrier will invalidate the bullish thesis for SOL. In such a case, SOL could slide lower and tag $51.16.
