The post Will Solana (SOL) Reclaim $180? Key Chart Signals Massive Move appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
After a notable price decline in recent days, Solana (SOL) is now poised for a massive upside rally due to its bullish price action on the daily time frame. SOL is one of the top cryptocurrencies, with its technology and adoption significantly rising, recently hitting a record high.
Despite this bullish development, the asset experienced a notable price decline due to bearish market sentiment. However, sentiment has begun to recover, and SOL is now gaining upside momentum.
According to expert technical analysis, SOL appears bullish as it has formed a bullish divergence on its daily time frame, indicating that the asset is poised for a massive upside rally. A bullish divergence is rare and occurs when the asset’s price makes a lower low, while its Relative Strength Index (RSI) forms a higher high. This signals that bulls are gaining strength and supporting the asset for a price jump.
Based on recent price action and historical momentum, if the asset holds above the $120 level, it could soar by 42% to reach $180 in the coming days.
SOL is currently trading near $126, having surged over 8% in the past 24 hours. During the same period, its trading volume increased by 25%, indicating heightened participation from traders and investors compared to the previous day.
With this bullish price action and ongoing market recovery, traders and investors seem to be strongly participating and betting on the bullish side, as reported by the on-chain analytics firm Coinglass.
Data from spot inflow/outflow reveals that exchanges have witnessed a significant $60 million worth of SOL tokens in the past 24 hours, indicating potential accumulation and causing buying pressure and upside momentum.
In addition, traders have increased their open positions in the past 24 hours. According to on-chain data, SOL’s open interest has surged by 11%. At press time, traders are over-leveraged between $125.8 and $128.5, having built $40 million worth of long positions and $23 million worth of short positions during the same period.
Combining these on-chain metrics with technical analysis, it appears that bulls are back, and the asset could soon recover and reclaim the $180 level in the coming days.

The crypto market has rebounded after a recent dip. Currently, the total market cap of the cryptocurrency market stands at $2.96T. In the last 24 hours, the market has experienced a surge of 1.5%. During the period, almost all the top ten cryptos have seen growth. BTC has grown by 2.7%, ETH by 1.6%, XRP by 3.2%, SOL by 3.2% and DOGE by 2.9%. The big question is: what has triggered this rebound? Let’s dive into the key reasons behind this price surge.
Earlier, US President Donald Trump 
Donald Trump
Donald Trump is an American former president politician, businessman, and media personality, who served as the 45th president of the U.S. between 2017 to 2021. Trump earned a Bachelor of science in economics from the University of Pennsylvania in 1968. Trump won the 2016 presidential election as the Republican Party nominee against Democratic Party nominee Hillary Clinton while losing the popular vote. As president, Trump ordered a travel ban on citizens from several Muslim-majority countries, diverted military funding toward building a wall on the U.S.–Mexico border, and implemented a family separation policy. Trump has remained a prominent figure in the Republican Party and is considered a likely candidate for the 2024 presidential election
President
announced a 25% tariff on auto imports from Canada and Mexico. The move created havoc in the global economy. It even affected the crypto industry as well. It was feared that the development could push the Northern American region into a severe trade war.
Yesterday, a temporary solution was made in the issue, as Trump agreed to a 30-day delay in the implementation of the tariff plan.
The decision was the final outcome of a series of discussions conducted with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum by Trump.
The temporary halt in the implementation of the plan has averted immediate trade disruptions, and, thus, considerably lowered macroeconomic pressure. Experts opine that this development has positively influenced the crypto market.
Yesterday, the US market reported a rise of around 1.05%. The S&P 500 index surged from $5,781.50 to $5,842.62.
The crypto market, even crypto stocks, have benefited from this positive momentum in the US stock landscape.
Yesterday, the MicroStrategy stock price climbed from $277.54 to $308.55, marking a notable rise of 11.17%
On the same day, the stock price of Coinbase Global grew from $214.64 to $222.45, recording a surge of 3.63%
In the last four days, the US Dollar index has declined by 3.21%. A weaker dollar can signal concerns about the US economy’s health. It can lead to higher import prices, potentially fueling inflation.
If the dollar is falling, and that fall is contributing to inflation, the US Fed may adjust interest rates. Reports say that there is a 52% probability for a Fed rate cut in June 2025.
Lower interest rates can encourage investors to seek higher returns in riskier assets, such as cryptos.
It is fair to assume that the drop in the DXY index reading and speculations regarding the June interest rate cut have influenced the crypto market positively.
Currently, the total market cap of the crypto market stands at $2.96T. The 200-day SMA of the market stands at $2.79T, the 100-day SMA at 3.28T and the 50-day SMA at 3.19T.
Recently, the market rebounded from the 200-day SMA line – which acts as a strong support. Now, it remains at least 5.74% above the support.
The 100-day SMA and 50-day SMA now act as resistant levels. If it breaks above the range of $3.19T and $3.28T, the market could see a strong bullish rally.
The RSI of the market is at 47.58. This also suggests that there is enough room for the market to grow further.
In conclusion, the crypto market is showing strength, with key technical levels in focus. If the trend continues, a bullish breakout could be on the horizon.

The crypto ecosystem is in the spotlight as the price of Bitcoin has fueled an unusual bullish shift for assets like Ripple Labs-linked XRP. With the broad-based rebound, XRP surprisingly saw its liquidation imbalance fade over the past 24 hours. Per data from Coinglass, the asset has seen almost balanced liquidations between long and short traders. Where price is heading now remains to be seen.
At the time of writing, XRP has seen a mild liquidation of $5.61 million in 24 hours, per Coinglass data. Surprisingly, futures traders have seen less exposure to XRP as altcoins like Solana (SOL), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Fartcoin surge ahead of XRP per daily liquidations.
The data shows that long traders suffered $2.73 million in liquidations, while short position traders suffered a loss of $2.88 million. Meanwhile, the liquidation trend shows that the imbalance has evened out. Notably, the trend shifted in shorter time spans, as short traders suffered more liquidations than long traders in 12 hours.
As the Coinglass data showcases, the shift in the broader market has pushed as many as 108,567 traders into losses as of this writing. Mostly, the uptick registered as Bitcoin reclaimed a 2-week high has shifted the broader market trajectory, even for XRP.
It is worth noting that the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization has rallied by over 3.11% as of writing. The coin now trades for $2.149, the highest level it has traded in about three weeks.
With this latest rally, the coin has pared off its losses over the past week, up 1.37%. Other important metrics are also in the green, signaling a broad-based rally in the market. The trading volume, for instance, has jumped by over 14.56% to $3.07 billion.
Market analysts have predicted a possible rally to $2.7 for the XRP price as Ripple network activity soared 70%. It remains to be seen whether the current momentum can fuel a reboot in the coin’s price.
Historically, the Ripple Labs-linked digital currency has ended the month of April on a positive note. According to Cryptorank data, the average growth rate of XRP in April is 24.6%. Thus far this month, the top coin has only recorded a 3% growth, implying more room for growth.
If the historical trend plays out again, XRP price may end this month on another bullish note. Notably, this will be the coin’s best performance since at least 2022. Amid the growing clamor for an XRP ETF product with the US SEC, the coin has the right fundamentals to grow.
