Solana moved to a six-week high on Wednesday, as markets reacted to the latest inflation figures from the United States. The consumer price index (CPI) fell to 5% in March, lower than the 5.2% sum many had expected. Ethereum classic also moved higher, nearing a multi-week high.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Solana (SOL)<\/h2>\n

Solana (SOL) extended yesterday\u2019s 15% gain on Wednesday, as the token rose for a fourth straight session.<\/p>\n

SOL\/USD raced to an intraday high of $24.34 earlier in today\u2019s session, which comes a day after the price was at a low of $22.42.<\/p>\n

Following today\u2019s surge in price, SOL move to its strongest point since February 21, when it traded at a high of $24.71.<\/p>\n

Looking at the chart, Wednesday\u2019s rally came as solana bulls took the token beyond a key resistance level of $24.00.<\/p>\n

One of the catalysts for this breakout was the 14-day relative strength index (RSI), which moved beyond a ceiling of its own at 64.00.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, the index is now tracking at 66.65, which is marginally below a higher resistance level of 68.00.<\/p>\n

Ethereum Classic (ETC<\/a>)<\/h2>\n

Ethereum classic (ETC<\/a>) continued to trade in the green in today\u2019s session, as prices reached a fresh multi-month high.<\/p>\n

Following a low of $20.75 on Tuesday, ETC<\/a>\/USD has moved to a high of $22.18 as of writing.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s move has seen ethereum classic climb to its highest level since March 18, and comes following a breakout beyond a ceiling at $21.50.<\/p>\n

Similar to solana, this has resulted in price strength moving past its own obstacles, and it is now tracking marginally below another hurdle at the 64.00 mark.<\/p>\n

Should the index find a way past this point of resistance, there is a good chance that ETC<\/a> will head towards $23.00.<\/p>\n
