Despite the fact that Ethereum is currently preparing for the network's "Merge" update, it seems as though Solana and Avalanche are doomed to a swift correction.
Given the significant gain over the past 24 hours, the area of resistance is where Solana and Avalanche currently look to reside. SOL had a 15% boost in the past 24 hours, going from an initial $39.2 to a $45.1 increase.
The quick rise appears to be related to Wednesday's report that US inflation had fallen to 8.5% in July, which was the catalyst for a rally in every market in the world. The prospect of the impending "Merge" has caused participants' attention to move to Ethereum in the cryptocurrency industry as of right now.
The shift in attention and interest to Ethereum may have an impact on the price movement of Solana. If SOL is unable to produce a four-hour candlestick above the $46 resistance level, a correction toward $40 may be assured. This is a stage that SOL must get through in order to move on.

A symmetrical triangle-like formation can be seen on the Solana four-hour chart, which suggests that a 33% climb to $60 is possible. Its initial objective is to surpass $46.
In the last 24 hours, Avalanche has seen a significant bullish movement, increasing by more than 10%. Avalanche started noticing an upward trend after AVAX broke free from a head-to-head shoulder pattern. The token is almost to the pattern's target of over $31.50, which has caused a sell signal to appear on the four-hour chart.
A one to four candlestick correction is predicted by the green nine candlestick that the Tom DeMark (TD) Sequential indicator has shown. A sharp increase in profit-taking that drives Avalanche below $28.80 could support the bearish forecast. AVAX may experience a fall to $27.20 or even $26.20 if this crucial support level is lost.
The market responded favorably to the most recent report on the U.S. Consumer Price Index because it indicates that additional gains are possible. It's also feasible that if Avalanche prints a four-hour candlestick that draws near to $31, it will gather momentum and debunk the bearish argument, rising to $34.
