Wait, Solana Actually Outpaced Bitcoin? Here’s What That Means…

by

So, Solana decided it would be fun to take a jog past Bitcoin, starting at a modest $120. Now it’s casually chilling above $130, plotting its next rebellious adventure beyond $142. 🚀

  • Solana breezed past $125 and $132 like it was on a Sunday stroll, leaving us all blinking.
  • Currently, it’s perched above $130 and comfortably kicking back above the 100-hour simple moving average—you know, some fancy math thing.
  • Chart nerds will be excited by the ‘connecting bullish trend line’ supporting a $137 base. Sounds like a sci-fi element, but nope, just crypto speak from Kraken.
  • If Solana clears $142 resistance, expect another bold sprint. Or, you know, some fancy sideways movement. Who’s to say?

Solana’s Price Gains: 5% and Feeling Fine

Starting off above $120, Solana decided it was time to get moving, tagging along with Bitcoin and Ethereum’s big party. It zipped past $125 and $132 with a bit more gusto.

At one point, it flirted with $145 resistance, hitting a peak at $143.06 before deciding to calm down a bit — perhaps catching its digital breath. It slid just below a 23.6% Fibonacci retracement (because we all speak Fibonacci now, right?).

Despite the little dip, it’s still comfortably hanging out above $130 and that trusty 100-hour moving average. And don’t forget that bullish trend line at $137, hanging in there like a loyal friend on the hourly SOL/USD chart.

On the upside, $142 is playing hard to get, with $145 waiting as the next gatekeeper. If Solana manages to cozy up past $150—well, congratulations, you have front row seats to the potential $165 show. Popcorn, anyone?

Pullbacks and Potential Drama

But beware, if Solana can’t climb over $142, a little tumble might be on the agenda. First stop: $138.50. If that fails to hold, $137 and its trusty trend line step in to save the day.

Drop below $137 though, and you’re looking at a fall towards $132. And just when you thought you were safe, slipping under $132 could bring a not-so-pleasant visit from the $125 support zone. Spoiler alert: it’s a rollercoaster.

Geek Corner: Technical Indicators

Hourly MACD – Currently putting on a bullish show.

Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – Holding strong above 50, because of course it is.

Major Supports – $137 and $132. Basically the moats around the castle.

Major Resistances – $142 and $145. The castle walls Solana aims to scale.

Stay tuned, folks. In the world of crypto, it’s either a rocket or a rollercoaster—and Solana seems intent on mixing both. 🎢🚀
