Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has highlighted a crucial moment for
the price action of Solana, pointing to a key support level within
a parallel channel. His technical analysis, which is based on SOL
price action on the daily candlestick timeframe, shows that the
altcoin has been trading in an uptrend channel since July 2024.
Notably, this uptrend channel has been highlighted by the formation
of higher lows and higher highs as Solana continued to push to new
all-time highs. Now, Martinez noted that holding above a key
support level could reinforce the altcoin’s uptrend towards the
upper trendline of the support channel. Related Reading: Bold

Analyst’s Technical Outlook: A Make-Or-Break Support Level At the
time of Martinez’s analysis, Solana was trading at $193, following
a barrage of declines throughout last week. Notably, this decline
saw Solana hit the bottom trendline of this uptrend channel. As
such, the analyst noted that SOL’s action from here could determine
its next big move. If Solana manages to hold above this
support level, the uptrend could regain strength, and the channel
will still be in play. In this case, Solana will still be on track
to push toward the upper end of the channel, which puts the price
target around $387. On the other hand, if the support fails, a
deeper correction could be on the table. Image From X: Ali_charts
Solana Price Action: A Rollercoaster Ride To $293 And Back SOL is
one of the best-performing cryptocurrencies in the current crypto
cycle, with its price recently skyrocketing to a new all-time high
of $293 on January 19. The rally was primarily driven by a wave of
interest following the launch of the Official Trump meme coin on
the Solana blockchain, adding momentum to an already bullish trend
for the altcoin. However, the euphoria has since cooled off, with
Solana experiencing a 30% decline since the all-time high.
Since the time of the analysis, Solana has managed to rebound
slightly from the lower boundary of its uptrend channel. Solana is
currently trading at $204, meaning it has increased by about 5.7%
since Martinez highlighted the key support zone. This reversal
suggests that the uptrend channel is still in play, and Solana
could continue to push upwards until it reaches $389.
Interestingly, this price target at the upper end of the channel is
reinforced by the Fibonacci extension indicator. Related Reading:

This indicator is extended from the Solana low of $109 in August
2024, and the $389 price target is at the 1.272 extension level.
The significance of this extension is reinforced by the fact that
Solana’s January peak also coincided with the 1.0 Fibonacci level.
Despite this recovery, the bullish momentum has yet to fully
confirm itself with a strong breakout. There is still a possibility
that Solana could retest the lower boundary of the channel again
before establishing a more decisive uptrend. Featured image from
