Solana (SOL) Rebound Slows Near Resistance As Ethereum Rises In DEX Volume

Solana (SOL) is attempting to recover from an almost 12% correction over the past seven days. The RSI has surged into overbought territory, suggesting strong bullish momentum. However, the BBTrend remains deeply negative—though it’s beginning to ease, hinting at potential stabilization.

Meanwhile, the EMA lines are setting up for a possible golden cross, signaling that a trend reversal could be forming if key resistance levels are broken. Still, with Ethereum overtaking Solana in DEX volume for the first time in six months and critical support levels not far below, SOL remains in a delicate position.

SOL RSI Is Now At Overbought Levels

Solana’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has surged to 72.91, up sharply from 38.43 just a day ago—indicating a rapid shift in momentum from neutral to strongly bullish territory.

The RSI is a widely used momentum oscillator that measures the speed and magnitude of price movements on a scale from 0 to 100.

Readings above 70 typically suggest an asset is overbought and may be due for a pullback, while levels below 30 indicate oversold conditions and potential for a rebound.

With Solana’s RSI now above 70, the asset has officially entered overbought territory, reflecting intense buying pressure in the short term.

While this can sometimes precede a correction or consolidation, it can also signal the start of a breakout rally.

Traders should watch closely for signs of continuation or exhaustion. If momentum holds, Solana could push higher, but any stalling may trigger profit-taking and short-term volatility.

Solana BBTrend Is Decreasing, But Still Very Negative

Solana’s BBTrend indicator has climbed slightly to -11.18 after hitting a low of -12.68 earlier today. That suggests that the bearish momentum is starting to ease.

The BBTrend (Bollinger Band Trend) measures the strength and direction of a trend based on how price interacts with the Bollinger Bands.

Values below -10 typically indicate strong bearish pressure, while values above +10 reflect strong bullish momentum. A rising BBTrend from deep negative territory can be an early sign of a potential reversal or at least a slowdown in the downtrend.

With SOL’s BBTrend still in bearish territory but improving, the market may be attempting to stabilize after a period of intense selling.

However, broader ecosystem developments complicate the technical picture. For example, Ethereum recently surpassed Solana in DEX volume for the first time in six months.

While the easing BBTrend hints at recovery potential, Solana still needs a stronger confirmation to shift the trend fully in its favor. Until then, cautious optimism may be warranted, but the bears haven’t fully let go.

Solana Still Has Challenges Ahead

Solana’s EMA lines are showing signs of an impending golden cross. A golden cross occurs when a short-term moving average crosses above a long-term one. That’s often seen as a bullish signal that can mark the start of a sustained uptrend.

If this pattern is confirmed and buying momentum continues, Solana price could push up to test the resistance at $131.

A successful breakout above that level may open the door to further gains toward $136, and potentially even $147.

However, downside risks remain if buyers fail to hold recent gains.

If SOL pulls back and loses the key support at $124, it could trigger further selling pressure, pushing the price down to $120.

Should the downtrend gain strength from there, SOL might revisit deeper support levels around $112.
