Solana Key Levels Today: Holding $100, $111 the Ceiling
Solana is near $104, down about 3% on the week after testing $100 on October 15 and 18. Resistance is $106–$107.50 and $109.50–$111; support is $100.
Solana is near $104 on October 20, about 3% lower on the week. The round $100 is the level everyone is watching: SOL dipped to about $100.60 on October 15 and about $100.40 on October 18, and buyers stepped in both times. Below that, the next support is near $97. Resistance is $106–$107.50, where every bounce since October 15 has stalled, then $109.50–$111, where the 50-day and 20-day averages sit. Solana ETFs have had outflows every session since October 5, though the amounts are small. The Alpenglow network upgrade, scheduled for October 21, is the coin-specific event to watch.
What Is Driving the Move?
Support: $100
Held on October 15 and 18. A daily close below it would be the first since mid-September and would open the area near $97.

The Tradeskill View
Two tests of $100 in four days make it the line. Higher-beta coins move further both ways, so size positions smaller.
