SOL broke beneath the neckline of its head and shoulders pattern but bounced from the support at the main uptrend line and the horizontal level of $52.

We may get a retest of $52. If broken, SOL likely tests $48 - a key level.

Technical analysis

  • SOL is currently rebounding from the $52 support. We see a retest of this level as likely, and it's pivotal for SOL to defend the main uptrend line. • If the $52 area is lost, price likely sinks to $48.
  • The local resistance is at $55 to $56.40. On the 4hr, it looks to be getting rejected. This is the first battle for bulls to win if they want to see further upside. 
  • The RSI on all timeframes, except the 3D and the Weekly, have reset substantially, indicating that the market is far less overbought than it was a week ago. 

Market mechanics 

  • The level of Open Interest has pulled back substantially, from $933m 6 days ago to $655m today. But this is still arguably somewhat overheated, particularly when comparing it to prior months. 
  • The Funding Rate has remained between 0.006% and 0.010%, indicating a healthy balance between Longs and Shorts, with the overall bias amongst traders to be Long. Overall, this is a healthy setup from a mechanics perspective. 

Cryptonary's take 

SOL has responded well having bounced from the support of the uptrend line and the horizontal level of $52. 

However, it now finds resistance between $55 and $56.40, and with Bitcoin seeming to struggle to push higher, it's becoming more likely Bitcoin will retest it's $35,600 support and this could drag the market down with it. 

This could bring SOL down to $52. In terms of upside, if $56 is cleared, then $61 is the target, but we think there can still be a further pullback here. 

We remain DCA buyers of SOL if price pulls back to $48, with our DCA buys becoming more aggressive sub $44. 

We will look to hold these positions for 12-18 months.
