As Solana continues to test key support levels, market participants are watching closely for signs of a breakout or further consolidation. The next few weeks could be decisive for Solana’s price action, setting the tone for its performance in the coming months. Will Solana bounce back to regain its highs, or will market uncertainty bring it down? Investors are waiting for clear signals during this volatile period.
Solana Enters Important Stage
Solana is trading just above the key support level of $190, a former supply area that has turned into demand. This level represents an important test for the asset as it seeks to strengthen its bullish trend. Solana has been making higher lows, a good sign of strength, but it still needs to find higher supply areas to confirm the continuation of the bullish trend.
Senior analyst Jelle recently shared his insights on X, emphasizing the importance of monitoring the SOL/BTC pair in the coming weeks. He noted that Solana is entering what appears to be a bullish phase, but its performance against Bitcoin will be an important factor in determining its future direction.
According to Jelle, Solana must return to the 0.0022 level against BTC to show strength and confirm its bullish view. If Solana fails to achieve this, Jelle has indicated that he will consider moving back some of his exposure to Bitcoin.

The current market volatility, fueled by Bitcoin’s struggle to break above $100,000, has left many altcoins, including Solana, in a volatile state. A break above the 0.0022 level on the SOL/BTC chart would not only underline confidence in Solana’s bullish potential but also mark it as a strong contender in the ongoing market rally.
The Need for Evaluation at Critical Levels
Solana is currently trading at $196, hovering in a highly sought-after area between $193 and $200. This range serves as a key battleground for bulls and bears as Solana tries to sustain its bullish trajectory. For the bulls to regain control, the price must clearly break above the $200 level, preventing bearish pressure and setting the stage for further gains.
To strengthen its bullish formation, Solana needs to regain the $222 mark. Achieving this will establish a high level, which strengthens the confidence of investors and shows the continuation of its growth. However, failure to push above $200 could leave the price vulnerable to further pressure.

On the other hand, a loss of the $193 support level could trigger a deep correction. This may cause Solana to enter a consolidation phase, where the price stabilizes before attempting another exit. Such a situation may increase market volatility as investors await clear signs of a continuing trend.
