Solana continued its short-term bullish rally to flip the $20 psychological level back to support.
A recent price report highlighted the possibility of a rally for bulls from the $18.86 support level after bears cracked the $20 psychological level. The release of Solana’s network update might have served as a catalyst for the bullish pullback.
SOL registered gains of 9.7% over the past seven days, riding on Bitcoin’s [BTC] climb to $27k over the same period. Could this be the start of a sustained bullish reversal for Solana?
Bullish comeback spurred by increased volume

Solana has been under sustained selling pressure since mid-April. This has seen its market structure remain bearish on the higher timeframes, breaking through key supports at $22.80 and $20.
However, Solana bulls were able to mount a comeback from the $18.86 support level, registering rapid gains to recover the $20 support level.
The strength of the bullish pullback was reflected by the on-chart indicators. The RSI rose sharply into the overbought zone before dipping back to the neutral 50 mark.
The OBV also experienced a 2.58 million uptick in volume while CMF remained positive at +0.05 to signal steady capital inflows.
The bullish comeback met resistance at the $21.46 price level, although the H4 structure remained in an uptrend. Bulls will be keen to press on with another move upward, especially if Bitcoin continues its push toward $30k.
On the flip side, bears could look to retest Solana’s $20 support level to continue the bearish trend on the lower timeframe.
