Solana Could Dominate Markets Next Month, Says Top Analyst

Day by day value motion within the SOL/BTC pair is starting to color a sharply completely different image from the one which dominated the primary quarter, in keeping with a chart shared on Sunday by veteran dealer Josh Olszewicz.

The one-day chart sets out a textbook inverse-head-and-shoulders (iHS) basing sample that has been forming since early March and is now approaching the neckline round 0.00162 BTC. On the time of the screenshot, SOL was quoted at 0.001588 BTC. With bitcoin altering arms close to $94,765, that locations Solana at roughly $150 per coin.

The anatomy of the sample is difficult to overlook: a March 19 low at 0.00127 BTC ($120) kinds the top, flanked by increased swing lows on March 11 left shoulder). The left shoulders is at the moment within the technique of forming. The horizontal neckline aligns with the late-December flooring that broke down in February, changing sturdy help into equally sturdy resistance. Measured from the top to the neckline, the amplitude is roughly 0.00033 BTC; a clear breakout would indicate a technical goal close to 0.00195 BTC—conveniently the decrease boundary of the Kumo cloud’s far edge.

Solana Bulls Have A Goal

The chart is overlaid with a long-look Ichimoku configuration (20/60/120/30). On the newest shut the Tenkan-sen sat at 0.00150 BTC, the Kijun-sen precisely on the neckline at 0.00162 BTC, and Senkou Span A printed 0.001742 BTC whereas Span B held increased at 0.002159 BTC. The cloud itself stays bearish—thick, crimson and overhead—but the span differential is starting to compress, signalling waning downward momentum. A decisive push into the Kumo would set off the basic Ichimoku edge-to-edge commerce, concentrating on Span B at roughly 0.00216 BTC (about $205).

The bullish setup is going on solely two months after the market accomplished the mirror picture of the identical sample. From mid-December to early-February, SOL/BTC carved out a outstanding head-and-shoulders, misplaced the neckline in early February and cascaded on to March’s iHs. That down-and-up symmetry offers further weight to the present formation by demonstrating how faithfully the pair has revered classical geometry in the course of the previous half-year.

“1D SOL/BTC – iHS + E2E in some unspecified time in the future however not quickly, in all probability late Might,” Olszewicz wrote on X. The analyst’s warning displays the truth that value continues to be beneath each the neckline and the Kijun-sen, and the Kumo doesn’t skinny materially till the ultimate week of Might. A untimely break try dangers rejection right into a last right-shoulder retest close to 0.00151 BTC ($143), which can also be the place the Tenkan-sen at the moment resides.

Notably, the Chikou Span (lagging line) stays under value and cloud, emphasising that pattern affirmation is pending; each Ichimoku purists and sample merchants might due to this fact agree that 0.00162 BTC is the road Solana bulls must flip decisively.

If the edge-to-edge goal is achieved, SOL would add roughly 26 % in opposition to Bitcoin from current ranges and reclaim floor final seen in early February. Ought to the neckline reject but once more, draw back safety is skinny till the dual shoulders at 0.00145–0.00148 BTC; a break of that shelf would invalidate the bullish thesis and reopen the March trough.

For now, the market is content material to coil beneath resistance whereas the clock ticks towards the cloud’s inflection. Whether or not Olszewicz’s late-Might timetable proves prescient will depend upon Bitcoin’s own trajectory and the broader danger surroundings, however the value construction on the Solana/Bitcoin chart is evident: after a bruising winter, the bulls lastly have a sample value defending.

At press time, SOL traded at $149.
