Solana Futures – Short Setup
Direction: Short
Entry Price: $194.539
Stop Loss: $201.000 (just above supply and liquidity pool)
Target: $187.935 (≈1:2 risk-to-reward)
Why This Trade Makes Sense
1. Rejection at Supply Zone
SOL retested the $194–$196 supply area, where sellers previously took control. The rejection wick signals bearish order flow.
2. Liquidity Sweep
Price briefly pushed into $195–$196, taking out stop orders and buy-side liquidity before reversing. This is a common liquidity grab setup.
3. Bearish Structure Shift
After the liquidity sweep, SOL broke a recent minor low, creating a change of character (CHOCH). A break of structure (BOS) further confirms sellers are leading.
4. FVG Retest Confirmation
The short entry at $194.5 coincides with a bearish fair value gap retest from the sharp drop, offering a precise entry.
5. Balanced Risk–Reward
Risk is about $6.46 per unit (201 – 194.539), while the potential reward is $6.60 (194.539 – 187.935). This keeps the R:R close to 1:2, making it a favorable setup.
