- If momentum holds, SOL could rally to $230, but if selling pressure returns, a drop to around $112 remains a risk.
- Solana ($SOL) broke out of a falling wedge pattern, climbing 10% and signaling a potential bullish reversal as traders regain confidence.
- Open interest surged 22% to $4.81B, and the Aroon Up Line hit 85.71%, both suggesting strong momentum and increasing trader participation.
After rocketing to a new all-time high of $295.83 back on Jan. 19, Solana ($SOL) got slapped with some heavy selling pressure. The bears grabbed the wheel for a bit, dragging the price down inside a falling wedge formation—basically, a tightening squeeze of lower highs and lower lows. Not exactly the vibe bulls were hoping for.
Breaking Free From the Wedge—Finally
That falling wedge? SOL busted out of it on March 19, popping above the upper trendline and signaling that the bears might be losing steam. Since then, the price has climbed 10%, and momentum is picking up speed. So, what does that mean? In chart-speak: buyers are stepping up, and sellers might be getting tired.
Normally with this kind of pattern—falling wedge breakouts—you get the feeling that selling pressure is drying up. Add a spike in trading volume, and it’s a decent sign of a legit trend reversal. SOL’s current open interest stands at $4.81 billion, up 22% since the breakout. That’s not nothing.
The Market’s Paying Attention
When open interest rises along with price action, that’s often a sign of conviction. More traders are jumping in, possibly expecting this rally to keep pushing higher.
Also worth noting: SOL’s Aroon Up Line—a funky but useful trend indicator—is sitting at 85.71%. That’s pretty high, and it basically means the coin is riding solid bullish momentum right now.
When that Aroon line’s close to 100%, it suggests new highs have been hit recently, and buyers are kinda running the show.
$230 in Sight? Or Is the Risk Still Lurking?
Let’s talk projections. If SOL plays by the rulebook, breakouts from falling wedges can see price moves equal to the height of the wedge. That could take SOL 67% higher, putting it around $230.
Sounds great, right? Sure, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. If this breakout fizzles out—say, volume drops or whales start offloading—there’s a real chance of a pullback. A heavy selloff could drag SOL down to $112 again. After rocketing to a new all-time high of $295.83 back on Jan. 19, Solana ($SOL) got slapped with some heavy selling pressure.
