Solana shows short-term recovery amid recent price decline, holding support levels as futures flows suggest potential for a market reversal.
The Solana (SOL) market has seen a 12.6% drop in its price within the last 24 hours amid the broader downturn that saw Bitcoin fall to $60,000. With Solana currently priced at $79.71, it has traded within a 24-hour range of $70.61 to $92.81. Despite this drop, the token has managed to remain above the key $70 price level.
Notably, Solana’s market cap stands at $45.1 billion, down over 10%. The 24-hour trading volume is notable at $14.2 billion, up 70%, reflecting surging activity in the market. Solana has also struggled over the past 30 days, showing a 42.6% decline and a notable 34.96% loss year-to-date.
Amid this massive decline, the coming hours will reveal if the 12.6% drop signals a larger bearish trend or just a brief setback.
Will Solana Fall Further or Reverse?
Looking at the Solana technical chart, the recent candlestick chart shows a sharp decline, but the price appears to be stabilizing near $80. If Solana breaks below this point again, traders could see another decline toward the next support levels around the $70 range.
Overhead resistance exists around the 50-period EMA at $123.30. The chart indicates that Solana has been moving away from this level recently, with price action pushing lower after attempts to stay above it. Any significant price movement above this could signal a potential bullish reversal toward the $136 level at the 100-period EMA. Until the price breaks above this point, downward pressure is likely to remain in play.
Looking at the Stochastic Oscillator, the current reading shows that Solana is in an oversold territory, with the value at 21.37. This could indicate that the asset may be due for a potential bounce, especially if buying pressure begins to rise.
If the Stochastic value moves toward the 50 region, it will confirm that Solana is regaining bullish momentum, but until then, caution is advised as prices may continue to test lower levels.
Solana Futures Show Short-term Recovery
Elsewhere, the data presented on Solana futures flows indicates a short-term recovery in market sentiment. In the past hour, Solana has seen a net inflow of $51.46 million, reflecting a 79.77% change.
The 4-hour and 8-hour data show even more notable increases, with $78.26 million and $105.84 million in net inflows, respectively. These inflows correspond to a growth of 202.05% over the last 4 hours and 157.54% in the past 8 hours.
However, the longer-term outlook remains mixed. Over the last 12 hours, net inflows have dropped by $94.57 million, and in the past 24 hours, net outflows of $231.55 million have emerged. This could suggest that while there is a short-term rebound, caution is advised for long-term traders as the market shows some volatility.
The 3-day and 5-day data reinforce this mixed outlook, with net outflows of $629.11 million over the last 3 days and $572.66 million over the past 5 days.
