Solana recorded a third sequential dip on Tuesday, with the token commencing August almost 5% down. As a whole, the global market cap was predominantly negative, depreciating by 1.44% at the time of reporting. Stellar plummeted to a week-long low, maintaining a four-day negative trajectory of its own.
Solana (SOL)
For the third session in a row on Tuesday, Solana experienced a fall, marking a low not seen since the previous week.
The pair SOL/USD plunged to a low of $23.16 in today’s session, following a high of $24.38 the previous day.
The low recorded on Tuesday is the lowest Solana has seen since July 25, when the token was trading below the $23.00 mark.
SOL/USD – Daily Chart
One contributing factor to this downturn seems to be the relative strength index (RSI) dipping below a support level of 51.00.
As of writing, the index stands at 48.84, with the next apparent support level at 45.00.
There’s a high possibility that SOL bears might drive the token closer to $20.00, if the bearish trend escalates.
Stellar (XLM)
Stellar (XLM) was another noteworthy token to witness a drop on the inaugural day of the new month, marking a fourth consecutive day of decline.
From an opening high of $0.1558 this week, the pair XLM/USD fell back to a low of $0.1465 in today’s session.
This marks Stellar’s lowest point since last Wednesday, and occurs as bears attempted to breach a support at $0.1445.
SOL/USD – Daily Chart
Like Solana, the sell-off in Stellar today was due to the RSI breaking below the 59.00 level.
At the moment, the price strength stands at 57.11, with the 10-day (red) moving average beginning to trend downwards, following a prolonged uptrend.
A goal of $0.1250 might be a long-term target, particularly if there’s a breakout below $0.1445.

These fluctuations are normal in the crypto space. Always remember to do your research, don’t invest more than you can afford to lose!
Seems like a good time to buy more XLM, right? if it goes to 0.1250, that’s a solid discount.
I’ve got a bunch of SOL, this downward trend’s killing me. Thought we had support at 23…guess not huh.
whats this RSI thing? Seems pretty important but no idea what it means lol.
hold tight guys, remember it’s a rollercoaster. Bears now, bulls later. We’ll see green soon enough, jus’ watch.
