Following a rebound from the lower trendline of a descending channel, Solana projected its next pit-stop around the $290-mark. A convincing close above the daily 20-SMA (red) would provide confirmation of the favorable outlook and an extension towards the 461.8% Fibonacci level.
Should SOL falter at the mid-line of its pattern, the 300% Fibonacci level would take center stage once again. At the time of writing, SOL traded at $214.7, up by 5% over the last 24 hours.

The 300% Fibonacci level could be key during the next drawdown and would defend an extended sell-off. The 200% and 161.8% Fibonacci levels at $135.36 and $113.2, respectively, could be called upon if bears assume market control.
Reasoning
The daily RSI was yet to establish a position below 40 and maintained neutrality between buyers and sellers. Meanwhile, the MACD suggested that bears were losing grip as the index approached a potential bullish crossover. However, the
