The post Is Solana Ready for a Strong Bounce? Santiment Sees a Shift Coming appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Solana (SOL) has been under pressure, recently dropping to a three-month low of around $160. Many traders are frustrated with this decline, especially since SOL was trading near $293 in January. However, according to Santiment, a well-known market intelligence platform, this negative sentiment might be setting the stage for a rebound.

Santiment reports that Solana’s sentiment is currently at its lowest level since January 20, when the market last experienced a sharp pullback. This means that a large number of traders have become extremely bearish, expecting SOL to continue falling.

Social media discussions around Solana have also surged, showing that many people are paying close attention to the token’s struggles, hinting at a losing confidence in Solana.
Interestingly, in past market trends, extreme bearish sentiment has often been followed by a price recovery. When most traders expect further losses, the market tends to move in the opposite direction.
This pattern has been seen before, where panic selling creates opportunities for smart investors to buy at lower prices before a recovery.
Sol Technical Analysis Hint Bullish Sign
Solana (SOL) has been stuck in a downward trend for a while, forming a clear pattern of lower highs and lower lows. However, technical indicators suggest that a recovery could be on the horizon.
One of the biggest signs of a possible turnaround is the 4-hour Relative Strength Index (RSI). While the price has been making lower lows, the RSI is forming higher lows, indicating that selling pressure may be fading.
If SOL manages to break above the key resistance at $173, it could signal the beginning of a new upward trend. The next major resistance levels to watch are $195.81 and $216.90, which align with previous price consolidation zones.
For now, all eyes are on Solana’s next move. If the bearish sentiment persists while prices stabilize, a recovery could be on the horizon.
