The price of Solana (SOL) has increased by 2.24% within the last 24 hours, settling at $139.09 amid a broader 1.5% decline in the crypto market. This downturn follows a challenging period as the German government continues to liquidate a substantial portion of the 50,000 BTC it seized in January 2024.
Despite recent setbacks, SOL has seen a 9% increase over the past seven days, even though it has dropped by 11% over the past month. However, the cryptocurrency is up 512% over the past year, demonstrating its strong medium- and long-term growth and potential for recovery. Analysts and traders remain optimistic, predicting a significant price rise for SOL in the coming months.
Renowned crypto trader Jelle notes similarities between Solana’s current market trends and its performance in the summer of 2021. He highlights several key patterns and indicators that suggest a possible bullish trend for SOL soon.

Jelle emphasizes that Solana has undergone multiple successful retests of a critical support level, reinforcing its foundation for potential growth. These retests have effectively pushed the weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) down to 50, indicating a balance in buying and selling pressures, setting the stage for possible upward momentum.
Solana Price Predictions
In 2021, a similar sequence of support retests and a dip in the RSI led to a substantial rally in Solana’s price. Jelle suggests this recurring pattern might indicate another significant upward movement, with a potential breakout in August signaling a robust rise for Solana.
Leading market analyst Ali Martinez echoes this sentiment, noting the resemblance between SOL’s current price pattern and its pre-bullish run in 2021. He predicts that if history repeats itself, SOL could reach significant milestones like $250, $450, and even $950 in the long term.
Trader Tandigrade joins the optimistic outlook, suggesting a symmetrical triangle pattern forming in SOL’s chart, similar to the one seen in 2021. If this pattern holds, it could propel SOL’s price toward $800.
As of now, Solana’s (SOL) price remains below both the 50-day and 100-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), which act as significant resistance levels. The 50-day EMA is around $145.80, while the 100-day EMA is slightly higher at $146.40. For SOL to exit its current bearish phase, it must close above these EMAs. A successful breakout could see SOL test resistance levels at $154.16 and $173.44, with potential targets at $180 or even $200.

The MACD reveals a slightly bullish scenario. The MACD line recently crossed above the signal line, though both lines remain close to the zero line, indicating weak momentum. This crossover suggests potential upward movement, but the proximity to the zero line means the trend is not strongly established yet.
Meanwhile, the CMF shows a positive reading at 0.12, indicating buying pressure. The CMF above the zero line suggests the market is experiencing more inflows than outflows, reinforcing the bullish sentiment suggested by the MACD.
