The post Is Solana Heading for a Breakout? If Yes, Here’s Where it May Lead to! appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
After the latest rise in the market sentiment, the top tokens like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana have been consolidating within a tight range. It continues to command significant attention, mainly due to its robust price performance and substantial on-chain activity since the start of the month. Currently, the SOL price is trading around $146.96, facing a loss of 1.44% over the past 24 hours. However, this modest pullback comes on the heels of a remarkable rally of over $64 from its monthly low of $96.59 to a high of $156.05.
The current price action appears to be bearish influence, but the SOL price remains well above its early April levels, underpinning broader market support.
Solana’s total value locked (TVL) stands at $8.54 billion with a 24-hr trading volume of $3.67 billion and open interest at $1.11 billion, pointing to a thriving ecosystem with sustained engagement from both DeFi and derivatives markets. Besides, April has brought enormous capital flows for Solana. Over 37.4 million SOL, worth nearly $52.76 million, was transferred out of Binance a few days back, which indicates huge whale activity and fund redistribution within the Solana ecosystem.
Will such large-scale withdrawals tighten exchange liquidity and impact the short-term SOL price dynamics?
The above chart shows the Solana price is trading within a perfect cup and handle pattern and just bounced off the support of the parallel channel. The price is heading slowly towards the resistance as the bears seem to have had enough dominance over the token. However, the bulls have kept the trend elevated and, in turn, have kept the bullish hopes alive. The DMI levels and the ADX have squeezed, which suggests a strong price action is on the horizon, considering the historical chart patterns. On the other hand, the weekly MACD shows a drop in the selling pressure while the levels are heading for a bullish crossover. Hence, a rise above $200 appears to be imminent in the coming month.
Solana’s fundamentals are strong, underpinned by whale engagement and a fast-growing DeFi ecosystem. After this significant recovery and DEX volume dominance over Ethereum, SOL is attracting sustained attention from both traders and long-term holders. Therefore, the Solana (SOL) price is believed to break through the resistance zone around $200, which may pave the way for a new ATH close to $500.
