Solana Bears Eye $113 Target If Ascending Structure Breaks Down – Details

Source Newsbtc

Solana (SOL) is currently holding above the $125 mark, a level that has acted as support in recent weeks. While this may appear a sign of strength, the broader sentiment around SOL remains cautious. Analysts are warning that the latest surge in price could be nothing more than a bull trap, setting the stage for further downside. Despite the recent bounce, price action continues to show weakness, with lower highs forming on multiple timeframes — a classic sign of bearish continuation.

The overall crypto market remains under pressure, and many investors fear that a deeper bear market could be unfolding. Macroeconomic uncertainty, combined with rising risk-off sentiment, has added to the concern. As a result, confidence among retail and institutional investors is fragile. Some are exiting positions, while others are choosing to hold through the volatility, sitting on unrealized losses in hopes of a long-term recovery.

With SOL struggling to establish clear momentum, analysts believe the path of least resistance remains to the downside unless bulls can reclaim higher levels with strong volume. A failure to maintain the $150 level could confirm bearish continuation and open the door for a move toward lower support zones. Until buyers return with conviction, Solana remains in a precarious position — caught between the fading momentum of a short-lived rally and the growing weight of market uncertainty. The coming days will be crucial in determining whether SOL can recover or if more pain lies ahead.

Solana Key Test As Bearish Sentiment Grows

Solana price action shows signs of weakness as bulls struggle to build momentum. The recent market surge brought temporary relief to altcoins, but many analysts warn it may have been a bull trap — a short-lived rally within a larger downtrend. With volatility rising again, Solana is now facing a critical test that could define its short-term direction.

Investor sentiment remains divided. Some fear a deeper bear market is on the horizon, pointing to macroeconomic instability, rising interest rates, and broader risk-off sentiment. Others continue to hold through unrealized losses, hoping for a long-term recovery despite mounting uncertainty. As SOL trades in this fragile zone, conviction remains low, and every move is being closely watched.

Runefelt highlighted a significant technical risk: if Solana’s current ascending support fails, the token could drop to as low as $113. This support line has so far held up against sell pressure, but repeated tests without a clear bounce raise the risk of a breakdown. A drop to $113 would mark a major correction and erase much of the gains made earlier in the year.

Until bulls can reclaim higher resistance levels and confirm a breakout, the dominant trend remains bearish. Analysts are warning that unless Solana can hold its current structure, the next leg down could come quickly. With the market on edge and momentum fading, Solana’s price action over the coming days will be crucial in determining whether the asset can stabilize — or if further declines are ahead.

Bulls Aim To Reclaim Momentum

Solana (SOL) is trading at $128 after two consecutive days of selling pressure, which erased a portion of its recent gains and pushed the asset back below key resistance levels. The market’s sudden shift in sentiment has left bulls on the defensive, with price action weakening across the board. For SOL to regain momentum and confirm a bullish reversal, reclaiming the $180 level in the coming days is essential.

The $180 zone has acted as a significant resistance point during previous rallies, and a decisive move above it would likely trigger renewed buying interest and open the door to a broader recovery. Without this breakout, however, the outlook remains fragile.

If bulls fail to push prices higher and reclaim critical levels, Solana risks falling deeper into bearish territory. Continued weakness could lead to another leg down, as traders eye lower support zones and brace for a potential bearish surge.

Market conditions remain volatile, and macro uncertainty continues to weigh heavily on risk assets. For now, SOL’s short-term future hinges on whether buyers can step in soon and drive a move back above the $150–$180 range to avoid a steeper decline.
