Solana Price Faces Major Correction Risks After Breaking Critical Three-Day Support Trendline
The current crypto-markets are experiencing heavy market volatility, and Solana (SOL) is now at an important technical inflection point within the high-throughput blockchain industry. After a long period of parabolic growth, recent data indicates that SOL may be entering an extended price discovery phase as the “Ethereum Killer.” Leading technical analyst Ali Charts has illustrated that SOL is currently experiencing a change in trend direction. Ali noted SOL has recently broken an ascending multi-month trend line; if September 13th lows are maintained, price will continue to Correct downwards.
The Breakdown of the 3-Day Trendline
Over the past year, SOL has shown consistent appreciation in price based upon an established ascending trendline on the 3-day chart, creating both a psychological and technical floor for buyers. Historically, this has been a clear point of “bounces” for investors during monthly pullbacks, but SOL has now closed below this diagonal support according to a recent technical article from Ali Charts.
When a market trend breaks on a longer-term timeframe chart, it creates a shift in market sentiment from bullish to more cautious about buying. Currently the price cannot gain enough momentum to turn past support into resistance. This breakdown indicates that the bullish cycle is likely to come to an end and needs some consolidation or further price decrease in order for additional liquidity to be available for retail or institutional buyers.
Critical Support Levels to Watch: $74.11 and $50.18
Based on previous data, if Solana does not return to the inflection point of $120, which was a critical level of support and resistance during an earlier rally, then it is likely that the path will be downward. Two additional important support/resistance levels for SOL are currently both $74.11 and $50.18.
These zones have historical significance in terms of price and volume; therefore, they are considered important price points. A drop to $74 would be a significant drop from the recent high; however, it could also provide a healthy reset for the market. If $74 does not hold as support, $50 will become a very critical price level to preserve the gains made from late 2023 to early 2024 to avoid a significant reversal. Investors also want to see whether ecosystems can grow enough to offset the bearish technical setup.
Ecosystem Resilience Amidst Price Volatility
Despite some intimidating technical chart patterns Solana’s ecosystem continues to show its tremendous strength. The network has experienced an explosion in volume from Decentralized Exchanges (DEX), which compared to Ethereum’s daily trading volume on a regular basis. The main reasons for this increase in activity are the current “memecoin” craze and Solana’s low-cost, high-speed transaction processing.
In addition, Solana’s involvement with broader Web3 projects continues to be a defining asset of the protocol that goes beyond just price action. Like other protocols focused on real-world utility, Solana’s teams have built out mobile devices such as the Saga phone and decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN). This underlying value should provide a “value floor” that helps avoid significant price drops during technical corrections.
Conclusion
Solana is still one of the more widely followed digital assets but right now its technical signals are showing warning signs. The break of the 3-day trendline shows us that the period of “easy” gains may be taking a break. SOL is now getting within range of the critical $74.11 and $50.18 levels, and market participants will determine whether this is a perfect entry point or if it has entered a broader cooling-off period. For the time being, market participants should exercise caution while waiting for concrete evidence of a change in trends.
