SOL's price is testing $148 support, with $162 as a key resistance. Upside is limited, and a potential pullback to $120 is expected over the next few weeks. Watch for a short squeeze.

  • SOL's Open Interest has kicked up quite substantially, suggesting that traders still have an appetite to take risks.
  • The Funding Rate is flat, however, suggesting that Longs are matching Shorts. A move to $155 could potentially lead to a short squeeze.

Technical analysis

  • Price broke above the prior high (March high), which was positive to see, and price is now battling at a key horizontal level of $148.
  • To the upside, the key resistances are at $162 and $180.
  • To the downside, $134 is a local support, with $120 a more significant support below that.
  • Interestingly, price was in a local uptrend, and it has recently lost that local uptrend line, as we can see.
  • The RSI isn't overbought, but it's not really in middle territory either. It is, however, currently sitting on top of and supported by its moving average. It'll be important to see if this metric holds as support.

Cryptonary's take

Its possible SOL can move up to $162, but we expect that might be all that's left in this move, and we're expecting a local top to either be in or be put in this week close to $162.

So, we think the next week can still give some upside, but limited upside; however, beyond that, we're not confident, and we expect $120 to be revisited again over the coming 4-6 weeks. Beyond that, and the $100 level, we do still expect that level to be in play, for June time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
