$SOL Could this be a rise in a bear market? Yes.
The goal of a bear market is to draw you in and make you believe that the worst is over, just before it drops again painfully.
Could this also be the beginning of a new upward trend? Yes.
Every new upward trend starts with a rise that looks exactly like this. The difference only becomes clear after time passes. The early stages of upward trends often rise amidst anxiety, doubt, and disbelief. And that's exactly what's happening now.
The key is to manage risk and stay open to both possibilities without getting attached to just one outcome.
Be flexible.
