Why Solana’s latest recovery of 15% may not last

A crypto analyst has predicted a potential price dip for Solana (SOL) despite its recent recovery.

Solana
  • Solana’s price spiked to $141.29 but may dip back to $130.
  • Analyst suggests watching the $146 risk line; surpassing it could propel prices to $150-$166.

Solana [SOL] has recently exhibited a recovery, surging by approximately 15% within a single day to trade at $141.29. This uptick is particularly notable considering Solana’s recent performance, which saw it plummet to a low of $110 earlier in the day.

Despite the promising surge, caution remains among market analysts. A well-regarded figure in the cryptocurrency analysis community, Ali has hinted that the downturn for Solana might not be completely over. 

The technical outlook on SOL

Utilizing the TD Sequential indicator, a tool popular among traders for identifying price trends, the analyst observed a sell signal on Solana’s hourly chart. This indicator suggests a potential retreat to the price levels between $135 and $130.

However, Ali pointed out a critical resistance level at $146. Should Solana break through this threshold, it could negate the bearish forecast and potentially propel its price towards the $150 to $166 range.

As of now, Solana has touched a high of $143 but has not yet surpassed the notable $146 mark.

The credibility of these predictions is bolstered by the analyst’s track record, having accurately forecasted Solana’s rebound to $142 from a previous low.

According to Ali’s strategy, maintaining a stop-loss at $117 could safeguard investments while capitalizing on potential gains.
