$SOL

Solana is at a thrilling crossroads, trading in a tight range but with all eyes on a potential breakout fueled by powerful market momentum. The recent price action shows a swift push from the midpoint of the range up to the range high, with minimal pullbacks—a clear sign of growing bullish energy.

The bulls are testing resistance around $206, where a successful retest and strong bounce could ignite a breakout, sending SOL surging higher. This move would confirm buyers' confidence and readiness to ride the momentum beyond previous barriers.

However, caution is warranted. Should SOL fail to hold above the range high and fall back, it signals reluctance among buyers, opening the door for bears to defend the ceiling and push prices lower. The market could then slip into sideways chop, creating a balance zone with no clear directional edge.

Adding to the suspense, liquidation data shows an even split between longs and shorts, meaning the next big price move could trigger a swift and volatile reaction either way.

Traders, stay sharp: watch the $206 level closely for proof of buyers' strength or signs of a retreat. The battle for SOL’s next trend is on—and the winner could ignite a major run or a sharp pullback.
