- Solana was at the strong support level at $124 at the time of writing.
- Trading volume increased by 36%, signaling investor and trader participation.
Over the past 24 hours, the cryptocurrency market has experienced significant selling pressure, following the world’s largest digital asset, Bitcoin [BTC] fell by more than 8%.
Other cryptocurrencies, including Ethereum [ETH]Solana [SOL]and Binance Coin [BNB] have also experienced significant 24-hour losses of more than 10%, 7% and 13% respectively in the last 24 hours, per CoinMarketCap.
At the time of writing, most cryptocurrencies were showing bearish trends amid this continued selling pressure. However, Solana started to show a bullish pattern on the daily chart.
Solana: These are some important levels
According to AMBCrypto’s analysis, SOL was at a strong support level at $124 and below the 200 EMA (Exponential Moving Average) at the time of writing.
SOL’s daily chart showed the formation of two bullish price action patterns: a bullish double-bottom pattern and a bullish divergence in the oversold region of the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
However, this was not the first time that SOL’s daily chart showed this pattern. In May 2024, a similar bullish pattern occurred at the same level around $124.
So there was a high chance that SOL would copy the May 2024 move. If history repeats itself, we could potentially witness a massive price increase of over 22%, reaching the $160 level in the coming days.
Despite this bullish outlook, the 24-hour Open Interest (OI) is down 7%, indicating lower interest from investors and traders in this challenging market, according to Coinglass.
This drop in OI can be attributed to the liquidation of $25.5 million in trading positions, with SOL being the third highest asset to have undergone this significant liquidation.
While the highest liquidation occurred in Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Price-performance analysis
At the time of writing, SOL was trading around $126, and in the last 24 hours it has seen a price drop of 7%. Trading volume saw a remarkable increase of 36%, signaling the participation of investors and traders.
