Ethereum closed February 4 at $2,255.96 after testing the critical $2,156 support floor established on February 2the lowest point since the December capitulation. This level represents not just psychological support but a technical inflection point where bulls must defend or risk accelerated downside toward $2,100.
Moving forward, we anticipate Solana will likely consolidate between 185 and 193 dollars over the next twenty-four hours as the market digests recent volatility. A sustained move above 199 dollars would confirm trend reversal, while a breakdown below 186 opens the door to testing the 179 to 180 support zone we highlighted as a more attractive accumulation area for patient long-term positioning.
Our forecast centers on the 270-295 range as the battleground for the next 48 hours, with a bias toward downside continuation unless we see decisive reclamation of 285 with strong volume. Traders should watch for potential short-term bounces from extreme oversold conditions but maintain awareness that the structural bearish setup remains valid until price reclaims and holds above 300, the level we've consistently identified as the bullish invalidation point.
