Market Metrics Indicate Volatility

Solana's market capitalization fell by 5.08% to $95.41 billion. The trading volume rose to $5.21 billion, largely due to the whale transaction. Currently, 81.7% of available tokens are being traded, highlighting market volatility.

Solana Support and Resistance Levels

Key support and resistance levels impact Solana's near-term trend. The $194 level is the initial support, with a threat of increased selling pressure below it. Breaking the $200 level could signal a potential trend reversal.

Whale activity significantly impacts Solana's price, leading to short-term fluctuations. Future recovery will depend on the market's supply and demand balance.
