This phase of pricing seems to have shaped the head-and-shoulder setting, a bearish-turning pattern containing three consecutive peaks, with the middle one being around $ 257 (called “head”) higher than the other two around $ 200 to $ 210 and right shoulder).

At the heart of the steady decline in the cryptocurrency market is the US Federal Reserve’s decision to unleash its $ 120 billion-a-month buyout program, followed by three or more interest rate hikes spanning 2022.

The central bank’s loose monetary policies have helped raise the cryptocurrency market’s valuation from $ 128 billion since March 2020 to as much as $ 3 trillion in November 2021. Therefore, there is evidence of declining investor influence to limit its exposure to overblown markets. , including Solana, which has gained almost 12,500% since March 2020.

Consequently, if the crypto market continues to decline in future sessions, SOL will also be in danger of confirming its head and shoulder setting.
