The Solana price plummeted 16% in the last week and 7% in the past 24 hours, as trading volume skyrocketed by 194% to $14 billion.
Current Solana Situation
Solana's 4-hour chart analysis shows a significant breakdown from a falling wedge pattern that confirms a bearish trend. The price dropped from $220 to $176 and then slightly recovered to $197.44. The sell-off was accompanied by a sharp increase in trading volume, indicating strong bearish momentum. The position below the 200-period SMA confirms the shift in market sentiment from bullish to bearish.
Recovery Opportunities
If SOL fails to reclaim the $221-$230 resistance zone, the downtrend might continue. However, given the oversold conditions indicated by RSI, a short-term bounce is possible. If SOL moves back to the $221-$230 range, a recovery towards $250-$260 may be achievable.
