  • SOL's Open Interest kicked up but then pulled right back down again as the Sunday/Monday liquidation event unfolded. Ultimately, the OI has remained in a downtrend since the start of the year.
  • Like ETH, SOL's Funding Rate fluctuates from positive to negative, indicating indecision amongst traders who are likely also being whip-sawed by the price action.

Technical analysis

  • SOL did really well in bouncing aggressively and recovering at the $203 horizontal level.
  • Today, the price has moved lower and bounced off $203 as new support.
  • For now, the price remains below the horizontal level of $222. A reclaim of that level would be the bullish reversal we'd be looking for.
  • If the price breaks back below $200, the key level to then hold will be $182.
  • The RSI is in the middle territory, but it's currently well below its moving average, which may mean the price can rebound higher in the short term.
6. Solana price chart with key horizontal support and resistance levels, trendlines, and RSI indicators tracking market sentiment.
  • Next Support: $203
  • Next Resistance: $222
  • Direction: Bearish/Neutral
  • Upside Target $240
  • Downside Target: $183

Cryptonary's take

SOL has broken down into the lower end of the major range (between $200 and $260). Ultimately, SOL needs to remain above $200, but we wouldn't rule out a revisit to $180 in the short term. To get the bullish reversal, we'd need to see a breakout of the downtrend line and a breakout of the horizontal resistance of $220. Until we see that, we'd remain patient, and in the immediate term, we're open to seeing some more downside (possibly $180).
