【CryptoWorld】SOL's 4-hour chart recently showed a clear upward movement. Compared to the same period two days ago, the price has rebounded and even broke through yesterday at 8 PM's high point, forming a small bullish candlestick. The closing price of this candle is also above the opening price.

- Buy zone: 119.53-122.25
- Long position stop-loss: 120.94
- Sell zone: 127.0-129.12
- Short position stop-loss: 129.
