SOL buckles below support - Will it retrace back to $48?

SOL is breaking below a main uptrend line and the local horizontal support of $56. The target would be $52; if $52 is lost, then $48 is on the cards.

We may move back to $57 first, but we see $52 as a very likely target for SOL.

TLDR

  • SOL breaks below the uptrend line and support at $56.
  • The minimum downside target is $52, but $48 is also in play.
  • Shorts outpacing longs signals fading momentum.
  • Long-term buys are near $44 if there is a deeper pullback.

Technical analysis

  • Price battled at the local horizontal support of $56 since Thursday of last week. However, price has now broken below. 
  • On the last meaningful move down, price found support at the main uptrend line. However, price has now retested the uptrend line and broken below it on the 4hr and 12hr timeframes. 
  • It’s possible SOL can retest back into the horizontal level of $56.40 and reject from the underside of the resistance.
  • The technicals suggest that SOL could head substantially lower, to $52 and even $48. 
  • The 3D and Weekly RSI both remain in overbought territory.

Market mechanics

  • Open Interest is not far off its highs again, now back to $795m, up 20% in the last few days. 
  • The OI-Weighted Funding Rate is at 0.0095%, indicating a slight bias to be Long but that Longs and Shorts are in even balance. However, the OI-Weighted Funding Rate has come down from 0.0150% since yesterday, indicating that more Shorts have come in whilst some Longs have closed out.
  • We can see this from the Long/Short Ratio at 0.9142. More market participants have chosen to Short in the last 24 hours than Long. 

Cryptonary’s take

From a mechanics perspective, SOL looks similar to ETH and BTC, with Shorts piling in over the last 24 hours, but this is not alarming enough. However, from a TA perspective, SOL looks like it’s due for more downside. We see $52 as a minimum target, with the potential for price to visit $48 also. 

If SOL can reach $48, we would be DCA buyers of SOL at this price, while we would become aggressive DCA buyers of SOL sub $44. 

If SOL retests the underside of the horizontal support/now turned resistance at $56.40, that may provide a trading opportunity to Short SOL into the underside of that horizontal resistance. But for now, we wait and remain patient.

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. Everything is timestamped and public record.

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.
