Biggest Movers: MATIC up 8%, as SOL Nears Fresh 2-Month High

Polygon (MATIC)

Polygon (MATIC) rose by as much as 8% earlier in today’s session, hitting a one-month high in the process.

Following a low of $0.7033 earlier in the day, MATIC/USD jumped to an intraday peak of $0.7473 on Tuesday.

As a result of this surge, MATIC hit its highest point since June 9, which is the last time the token broke out of a ceiling at $0.7480.

MATIC/USD – Daily Chart

MATIC bulls were unable to breach this ceiling in today’s session, with the price retreating from an earlier high.

This comes despite the relative strength index ( RSI) marginally breaking out of a ceiling at 59.00, with a current reading of 59.31.

In the event the index continues to strengthen, the odds of a breakout above $0.7480 will greatly increase.

Solana ( SOL)

After dropping by nearly 7% to start the week, solana ( SOL) bulls moved to buy the dip, with price now closing in on a fresh multi-month high.

SOL/USD jumped to a high of $22.29 earlier in the day, which is less than 24 hours after almost falling below $20.00.

Tuesday’s peak sees the world’s ninth largest cryptocurrency $0.20 away from a recent two-month high at $22.49.

SOL/USD – Daily Chart

Looking at the chart, it seems that traders reentered the market after the RSI hit a support level at 65.00

As of writing, price strength is at a reading of 69.05, with the next visible resistance zone at 72.00.

Should today’s momentum extend throughout the week, there is a good chance that solana will climb past $23.00.
