Solana Price Prediction: SOL likely to fall another 20% before buyers step in

  • Solana price has faced intense selling pressure around the $200 psychological level.
  • Technicals hint at another 10% to 20% correction on the cards for SOL.
  • Sidelined buyers could get a buying opportunity on the potential retest of $134. 

Solana (SOL) price has undone half of the gains noted in the past week as it trades below the $200 psychological level. This bearish outlook could lead to further corrections over the weekend or the next week.

Solana price needs a breather

Solana price has shot up 1022% since September 2023. The two main reasons for this mind-melting rally are Bitcoin’s bull run and the overselling of SOL due to its connection with the now-bankrupt crypto exchange FTX. Last week, Solana soared 39%, registering the highest weekly gain of 2024. 


But in the past five days, Solana price faced massive rejection around the $200 psychological level and is currently trading nearly 16% lower than the previous week’s closing level. This correction is potentially aided by:

  • Bitcoin’s bearish outlook: BTC is crashing ahead due to the weekly sell signal. As profit-taking ensues, the pioneer cryptocurrency will likely take altcoins down with it.
  • Bearish divergence: The weekly SOL chart has spawned a higher high while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has formed a lower high, indicating a non-conformity termed bearish divergence. This setup often signals a slowdown in momentum which leads to a potential reversal or a short-term pullback.
  • MRI's potential sell signal: The Momentum Reversal Index (MRI) has flashed a yellow down arrow, which spawns on the eighth consecutive up candlestick. This development warns that the next up candlestick for SOL would flash a sell signal that forecasts a one-to-four down candlesticks.

Considering the bullish market conditions, a reversal is unlikely, which suggests that SOL is in for a correction. Additionally, the bear market that began in early November 2021 saw a dead cat bounce to $200, which is where SOL is currently facing another sell-off. Therefore, the stable support levels where buyers might find Solana price attractive include the weekly foothold at $152 followed by $134, which is the midpoint of the previous bear market crash. 
Ideally a sweep of the $134 would be the best place for accumulation, but due to the extremely bullish outlook investors should note that this move would be have low probability of occurring.

On the other hand, if Solana price flips the $200 psychological level prematurely, the chances of an uptrend continuation are high. However, if Bitcoin price continues to shed, then SOL could follow in its footsteps.
A decisive weekly candlestick close below $134 would suggest a potential shift in trend. This development could attract weak hands to sell their holdings. If the panic sell-off has enough strength to push Solana price to produce a weekly close below $100, it would invalidate the bullish outlook. In such a case, Solana price could crash 11% and revisit the $89 support level.

Bitcoin Price Outlook: How many more stabs at the lows before BTC aims for $70K?

  • Bitcoin price is forming a falling wedge pattern on the 8-hour time frame amid ongoing profit booking and heightened volatility.
  • JPMorgan anticipates a larger sell-off, saying BTC is still overbought despite the ongoing correction.
  • Halving is out around four weeks, expected to kick-start the next bullish cycle, but the bank anticipates even more selling thereafter.

Bitcoin (BTC) price is suffering the implications of bearish sentiment related to a slow down in spot BTC ETF flows. As the influence of this fundamental continues to wane and with the halving coming in a few weeks, investment bank JPMorgan says the market should brace for even more sell offs.

BITCOIN, ALTCOINS, STABLECOINS FAQS

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, a virtual currency designed to serve as money. This form of payment cannot be controlled by any one person, group, or entity, which eliminates the need for third-party participation during financial transactions.

How many more stabs at the lows before Bitcoin aims for $70K?

Bitcoin price is still shedding with the dump now going into two full weeks. Analysts ascribe this to ongoing outflows, an outcome that continues to spell bearish sentiment in the market. For instance, BlackRock, the issuer of the GBTC spot BTC ETF, had recorded nearly $13 billion in outflows year-to-date as of March 21. This marked the biggest outflow among over 3,400 US-listed ETFs.


$GBTC getting a 'second wind' of outflows, $1.4b this week along, now double any other ETF in outflows YTD and have set record for cumulative outflows for any ETF in history. All that and they STILL rank 3rd overall (out of 3,400 ETFs) in annual revenue generated. https://t.co/HitMwpu7dR

Meanwhile, American multinational financial institution JPMorgan anticipates an extended fall in Bitcoin price, adding that BTC is still overbought even as the dump continues. Speaking to a news site, Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, an analyst and managing director at JPMorgan, attributed the dump to profit booking. Panigirtzoglou added that this could continue into the halving event, which now stands around 32 days away, according to NiceHash.
One of Nansen’s analysts, Aurelie Barthere, told FXStreet that the firm’s risk management indicators turned risk-off last week, signaling at least a pause in the BTC rally.
“Our main scenario is that this is likely a consolidation in the crypto bull run and not the end of it,” said Barthere, adding, “The arguments in favor of this scenario are: crypto and other risk assets are now out of the way, with a re-pricing (one less Fed rate cut in 2025) now having digested The FOMC meeting. If this scenario materializes, BTC is likely to revisit all-time highs. The proximity of the BTC halving is of course also helping.”

While JPMorgan anticipates even more profit booking post-halving, Barthere said, “The data we will watch is the release of the US March 2024 CPI report on April 10.”

Bitcoin price outlook as JPMorgan anticipates more selling pressure

Bitcoin price remains in a downtrend amid increasing bearish calls among investors. While it continues to hold above the ascending trendline, the market is strongly leaning toward the downside, and BTC price could extend the fall.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is moving below the 50 mean level and has crossed below its signal line (yellow band), denoting a bearish stance. The Awesome Oscillator is also in negative territory, accentuating the bearish thesis.
Increased profit booking could see Bitcoin price extend the fall, with a slip below the trendline clearing the clog for BTC to test the support at $60,840. In a dire case, the slump could extrapolate for a liquidity sweep before a potential recovery.

On the other hand, if buyers come in at current levels, Bitcoin price could start recovering. While shattering the upper boundary of the wedge pattern would be a good sign, overcoming the $69,000 threshold would be the sounding bell that could draw in more buyers.
If the bulls manage to push Bitcoin price above the $70,080 resistance level, the next logical move would be to clear the $73,777 peak before a possible foray beyond $74,000.
