$SOL Trying For W Patter ReversalTHE MARKET REALLY WANTS TO GO UP. Stronger coins, such as CRYPTOCAP:SOL keep putting in higher lows. If we close above the EMA9 on the Daily that will be really telling. A bit premature to call a reversal, but I’ve been speculating on this W reversal pattern forming since Trump announced the Crypto Strategic Reserve. 

Perfect setup for that. The lack of liquidity is the only thing holding back the reversal and reason for the pump n dumps on every bit of news.

SOL formed Weekly H&S, Pump Potential Could Be HugeLast time, I shared an analysis predicting that CRYPTOCAP:SOL could drop to $131 to form the second right shoulder of a massive Head and Shoulders Bottom. (I’ve included the related publications for you to check.) That drop has played out recently, and COINBASE:SOLUSD has hit the target. The weekly Head and Shoulders Bottom on BINANCE:SOLUSDT looks perfect, with two dips on each shoulder and nearly identical drop sizes. If this pattern holds, the upside potential is massive—breaking $1,000 could just be a matter of time (and that might even be a conservative target). But, please always set a stop-loss for your trades—there are no guarantees in any scenario. 🔴 Read my signature & publications for more info you don’t want to miss. 🔥  for more future "guesses" like this!

Playing Yearly Levels on SOL: Targeting $170I know the market looks dreadful, especially for most coins within the Solana ecosystem. However, this is simply a retest of the breakout levels and the Point of Control (POC) into the $130s. If there’s a chance to get it cheaper around $122, I’ll place a bid, along with the last level. These are spot buys, of course. This is all true as long as BTC stays above $75K, so keep that in mind when taking risks. If BTC decides to challenge sub-$80K territory, be cautious. I’m not looking for new all-time highs (ATHs), but a retest around $170 would be welcomed. CRYPTOCAP:SOL BINANCE:SOLUSDT

Sui: Mixed Signals With A Hard Chart (Bullish Later)I don't like it when there is too much empty space below the active candles, you what I mean? Below support here on the chart, there is just too much room for prices to move lower. But, when we are looking at a strong project things can be different but I still don't like it. SUIUSDT. The level that worked as resistance in October 2024 is now working as support, March 2025. This is a good signal. The action is still weak and there can be lower prices but, I bet there is some bullishness coming from the RSI and this indicator is what we will consider next. The RSI bottomed 7-Feb. while SUIUSDT hit its lowest price 4-March. So we have a small bullish divergence, an early bullish signal. The down-wave first bounced perfectly off 0.618 Fib. retracement, on a wick. Now there was a wick below this level but two close above. This is another positive signal but still early and still weak. So it is mixed. It is possible that SUIUSDT can start to reverse, but the fact is that it is moving lower and there is now volume, yet, to support a bullish wave. It will recover soon enough near support. It will recover very soon... That's for sure. Allow for some swings but it won't be too long. The Cryptocurrency market as a whole will grow. I am betting up. Namaste.

The Art of the Dick-n-Balls Setup A.K.A. Head & ShouldersTL;DR: This is a textbook Head & Shoulders pattern, but let’s be real—it also resembles something more… anatomical. Regardless of how you see it, the market structure is screaming impending breakdown as we gear up for a possible move toward $125-$130. 1️⃣ The Left Shoulder → Initial rally followed by a pullback, setting the first high. 2️⃣ The Head → A euphoric breakout attempt, swiftly rejected, forming the highest peak. 3️⃣ The Right Shoulder → A weak push upward, failing to reclaim the highs, signaling distribution. 💀 Neckline Break = Confirmation: Price is slicing through key levels, rejecting off moving averages, and forming lower highs. 📉 Target Zone: Fibonacci extension and previous liquidity pools align around $125-$130, making this the next logical support zone. 📊 Additional Confluence: Volume Profile: Decreasing volume on right shoulder = buyers losing steam. EMA Rejection: Price struggling below key moving averages. Liquidity Grab: Stop hunts above the head indicate smart money distribution. 🚨 Final Take: If this setup plays out, the move down could be swift. While it may look like a "Dick-n-Balls" to the untrained eye, the market only cares about order flow, liquidity, and psychology—all of which suggest a bearish continuation. Stay sharp, trade smart. 🔥💎

SOL/USDT Elliott Wave AnalysisSolana is currently in a corrective phase following a significant decline from its recent highs. The chart reflects a complex Elliott Wave structure, with an ongoing ABC correction. The primary expectation is for further downside, with the final Wave C targeting the $75–$85 demand zone (highlighted in purple). Primary Scenario (Bearish Outlook) Wave A has completed, followed by a corrective Wave B, which saw a temporary rally. Wave C is unfolding, with sub-waves indicating a further decline. The structure suggests Wave v of C is yet to complete, with potential targets in the $75–$85 range. A corrective bounce within Wave iv is expected before the final drop. Alternative Scenario (Bullish Reversal) If Wave C fails to break below $125, this could indicate a truncation. A strong impulse breaking above $165–$175 could invalidate further downside and shift momentum towards a bullish recovery. In this case, Solana could begin a new impulsive structure targeting $200+ in the coming weeks. Key Levels to Watch: Support: $125 (current low), $85–$75 (major demand zone) Resistance: $165–$175 (invalidates bearish outlook) Overall, the bias remains bearish unless we see strong momentum above $165. Until then, lower targets remain in focus.

Solana's Flush Is Over: The Path Toward $500+ Is Now ClearThis is it! Good afternoon my fellow Cryptocurrency trader, we are ready and live today. Solana's low has been hit. Are you a Solana trader, buyer, holder? Are you a Solana fan? If yes, I have great news for you. The low is in! Solana's low has been hit. Get ready for a massive bullish phase. ➖ Technical Analysis SOLUSDT just activated a very strong support zone. This is the support zone that was created between June and October 2024. A consolidation phase that lasted more than four months and launched a bullish wave that peaked at $296. This same support range is now being activated with a higher low, and this will lead to a new market phase, the 2025 bull-market. A higher low leading to a very strong higher high; a new All-Time High plus much more. Easy target here is set around $379 but there is room for more, much more because we are about to experience long-term growth. First, we will have three months green, that is March, April and some May. Then likely a correction and then additional growth leading to the bull-market bull-run phase. This is a rough presentation, we will go deeper as we study together the market and the charts. Huge profits will be made. This is fun. This is awesome. We are ready to trade. Thank you for reading. Namaste.

Solana: Intra-week Setup Locked In I’m targeting an intra-week play on Solana, but staying cautious. That’s why I’m using a tighter stop-loss and placing my entry slightly lower. Still, this is a strong level for me because multiple key factors are lining up. We have the midpoint of the 30-minute Fair Value Gap, an untouched VWAP (which I’ve hidden to avoid clutter), the VAL from VWAP (Volume Area Low), and a huge liquidity zone above the Previous Weekly High, including an order block – acting as a potential magnet. On the 30-minute time frame, the RSI is trending further into oversold territory, adding more confluence to the setup. Lower time frames are still looking bullish, as long as we hold this level. If not, things could get messy. But until then, everything looks solid.

How are 'Stategic Reserve' assets going to react?? Weve had plenty of scepticism come out over inclusion of altcoins in the strategic reserves. News reports on it undermining the reserve. We have also had Trumps cost cutting and tariffs pushing bearish pressure on the market. While ADA+XRP+SOL are sitting on previous all time highs. Even more troublesome is the unwinding of USDT. This may pull away one of the largest liquidity providers to the crypto space. This can be extremely bearish. I am myself however still bullish. I see rising fundamentals and a lot of room for upside in L1s and applications token price.

Trump’s crypto picks struggle: Saylor sees $200T market cap Bitcoin has fallen below the 78.6% retracement of Sunday’s surge and is now less than 2K above the level it was at when Trump tweeted about a strategic reserve including Bitcoin and a few altcoins. Some of the smaller cryptocurrencies mentioned by Trump—Cardano, Solana, and Ripple—are holding up slightly better but have also dropped. Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor, whose company holds nearly 500,000 BTC, strongly endorsed Trump’s proposed strategic crypto reserve in a CNBC interview. Saylor also predicted Bitcoin’s market cap could reach $20 trillion and eventually $200 trillion, projecting a price of $13 million per BTC by 2045. In a bullish scenario, he sees Bitcoin hitting $49 million, while a bearish case could still put it at $3 million.

Trump Pumped the MarketTrump just dropped a game-changer: a U.S. Crypto Reserve, stacking Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA). He’s talking big, calling the U.S. the "Crypto Capital of the World." The market lost its mind: BTC surged 8% to $90,828, ETH jumped 13% to $2,516, and the altcoin crew, XRP, SOL, and ADA, exploded with gains of 33%, 22%, and over 60%, respectively. That was the initial rush. Over the last 12 hours, things have settled, prices are holding, but the hype’s taking a breather. All eyes are on the White House Crypto Summit for what’s next. What’s Really Going On? This could be massive. If the U.S. government starts holding crypto, it might drag big institutions into the game, and some solid regulations could calm the wild west vibes. But hold up, Trump’s got his own crypto side hustle (think meme coins and sketchy Justin Sun connections), which raises some red flags. The market loved the hype, huge spikes everywhere, but the quick cooldown shows traders aren’t fully sold yet. Other countries might panic or jump on the bandwagon, so expect more chaos either way. Your Bags: Hold, Buy, or Bail? If you’re sitting on BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, or ADA, this could pump your portfolio long-term, especially if the summit brings real substance, not just noise. Trump’s involvement, though? That’s tricky, it could warp the market in unpredictable ways. Details are thin, and crypto’s still a rollercoaster. The big pump was exciting, but the quiet after suggests we’re in a wait-and-see spot. Hard proof always trumps promises. How to Trade This (No Nonsense) Know Your Coins: Don’t jump in blind. BTC’s the heavyweight champ, ETH’s the smart money, XRP’s got speed, SOL’s lightning, ADA’s eco-friendly, pick what fits your style. Spread It Out: This market’s a monster, mix in some stablecoins or stocks so you’re not riding one wave. Stay Sharp: X is your go-to for real-time buzz, cross-check with CoinDesk and Reuters, but filter the noise. Summit news will shake things up. Protect Yourself: Set stop-losses, volatility’s brutal, and headlines flip on a dime. Key Levels to Watch: Set alerts, BTC’s $90k- GETTEX:92K is the big fight, ETH’s $2,500 is critical, XRP’s $2.17-$2.50 could swing hard. Stay tight on these. The Bottom Line: Trump’s crypto move rattled the cage, but it’s not a free ride. Keep your wits about you, watch those levels, and don’t chase the hype blindly. The summit’s the next big trigger, brace for impact. This is a chess match, not a quick gamble, so trade smart and guard your stack.

Solana Reverses Downtrend: Trump's View on Crypto and What Next.Solana Breaks Downtrend Line: Trump’s Crypto Stance and Key Resistance at $180 Solana has recently broken the downtrend line on its daily timeframe, which has garnered significant attention in the crypto market. This shift in momentum comes amidst former President Donald Trump’s comments on cryptocurrencies, where he named XRP, Solana, and Cardano as potential candidates for a U.S. crypto reserve. His statements have sparked renewed interest in these assets, pushing their value upward. Currently, Solana is facing resistance at the $180.00 level. For traders looking to enter a long position, it’s crucial to wait for a breakout above this key resistance. Confirming the breakout would require the price to close above the $180 level in a 4-hour timeframe. Until then, caution is advised, as the market continues to test this critical threshold. Traders should monitor the situation closely for any signs of a breakout or rejection at the $180 level. If Solana manages to close above this level, it could signal the next phase of its upward momentum, with potential for further gains. However, patience is essential to ensure the breakout is confirmed before entering any long positions.

$RETARDIO: Falling Wedge Pattern Hints at Potential Reversal$RETARDIO, a Solana-based meme token that has recently experienced a dip while forming a falling wedge pattern—a historically bullish formation. As market participants assess its price action and fundamentals, could this signal an imminent breakout? Technical Analysis: Falling Wedge and Fibonacci Insights* Since January 20th, $RETARDIO has been consolidating within a falling wedge pattern, a setup known for its potential to reverse downward trends into bullish breakouts. Despite the overall bullish sentiment in the crypto market, $RETARDIO has yet to follow suit, instead hovering near a key support level. A crucial technical level to watch is the 65% Fibonacci retracement point. If the asset gravitates towards this zone, it could serve as an ideal liquidity pool for buyers, allowing for a shakeout of weak hands before a potential rally. Supporting this perspective is the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 56, which suggests the token is not yet overbought, providing room for an upside move. Furthermore, a breakout above the wedge’s resistance could signal the beginning of a bullish trajectory, drawing in traders eyeing confirmation of the reversal pattern.

TradeCityPro | Deep Search: In-Depth Of Solana👋 Welcome to TradeCity Pro! In this analysis, I will thoroughly review the SOL project, one of the largest crypto projects with a market cap of $73 billion, ranking it 6th among cryptocurrencies. 🔍What is Solana? 🔹Solana is a high-performance, permissionless blockchain platform launched in 2020 by Solana Labs (founded in 2018 by Anatoly Yakovenko and Raj Gokal). Solana is a high-performance Layer-1 blockchain designed for speed, scalability, and low costs. Launched in 2020 by Solana Labs, it processes up to 65,000 transactions per second (TPS) with sub-second finality and low fees (~$0.0002 per transaction). Unlike Ethereum, which relies on Layer-2 solutions, Solana achieves scalability on Layer-1 using novel technologies like Proof of History (PoH). It is optimized for DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and payments, positioning itself as a fast, cost-efficient alternative to Ethereum. — 🔹History & Background olana’s development began in 2018, when Anatoly Yakovenko (a former Qualcomm engineer) published a whitepaper introducing Proof of History (PoH) as a new approach to timekeeping in distributed systems. The project attracted venture funding; in 2019 Solana raised $20 million in a Series A led by Multicoin Capital​. After several testnet iterations (nicknamed Tour de Sol, etc.), Solana’s mainnet beta officially went live in March 2020. The Solana Foundation, a Swiss non-profit, was also established in 2019 to steward ecosystem development​. Solana nodes take full advantage of multicore CPUs, GPUs, and high-bandwidth networks, processing transactions in parallel and pipeline fashion. The network’s 400–600 millisecond block times and capacity for multithreaded execution are a stark contrast to the single-threaded EVM model — 🔹How Does Solana Work? Solana’s speed and efficiency come from eight core innovations: 1) Proof of History (PoH): A cryptographic clock that timestamps transactions before consensus, reducing latency. 2) Tower BFT Consensus: A Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mechanism that leverages PoH to speed up block finalization. 3) Turbine: A block propagation system that breaks data into smaller packets for faster distribution. 4) Gulf Stream: A mempool-less forwarding system that pre-assigns transactions to upcoming validators. 5) Sealevel: A parallel smart contract execution engine, unlike Ethereum’s single-threaded execution. 6) Pipelining & Cloudbreak: A transaction processing unit and scalable storage for high throughput. 7) Archivers: A distributed storage system for historical blockchain data. Together, these technologies enable high throughput and low fees while maintaining decentralization. — 🔹 Solana’s Consensus Mechanism Solana combines Proof-of-History (PoH) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS), with Tower BFT handling validator voting. - PoH timestamps transactions, eliminating the need for validators to agree on time. -PoS selects validators based on staked SOL, securing the network. -Tower BFT speeds up consensus by locking validator votes, reducing fork probabilities. -Finality is achieved within seconds, making Solana one of the fastest blockchains. — 🔹SOL Tokenomics & Vesting Initial supply: 500M SOL at launch (2020). Distribution: 39% community, 25% private investors, 13% team and 10% foundation. Inflationary model: Started at 8% annual inflation, decreasing 15% yearly until reaching 1.5% final inflation. Token burn: 50% of transaction fees are burned, reducing supply growth. Vesting: Early investor and team tokens had a 4-year vesting period, most fully unlocked by 2023. — 🔹Some of wallets Supporting Solana - Phantom -Solflare -Trust Wallet - Atomic Wallet - Exodus: -Ledger Nano S/X -Backpack -Glow, Torus — 🔹Platforms for Staking SOL BlazeStake marinade.finance Jito Lido — 🔹Liquidity Pool Platforms Raydium Orca Jupiter Meteora Saber Pancakeswap Lifinity Saros Finance Drift Protocol Aldrin Crema Finance 🔹Solana’s 2025 Roadmap and DeFi Opportunities A key focus in 2025 is Firedancer: a new Solana validator client being developed by Jump Crypto. Firedancer aims to drastically boost Solana’s throughput and stability – it has demonstrated a theoretical capacity of over 1 million transactions per second in tests​. As of early 2025, the Solana team is actively testing Frankendancer (an early Firedancer version) on testnets, pushing for a supermajority of validators to trial it. This upgrade, once fully deployed, is expected to give Solana a significant edge in scalability and help avoid the network congestion issues seen in the past. New Token Standard (Token-22): Solana’s roadmap also introduces Token-22, an enhanced token standard designed for more functionality in payments and digital assets. Token-22 will support built-in features like automatic royalties and richer ownership controls, which is especially useful for NFTs and gaming assets on Solana​. This upgrade will enable developers to create more versatile dApps – for example, NFTs with enforced royalty payments or tokens with conditional transfer rules – improving the user experience within Solana’s ecosystem​ Scaling Techniques (Sharding and Parallelization): Even though Solana already handles about 50k TPS, the core team is exploring sharding and other parallelization techniques to stay ahead of future demand​ Security and Stability Enhancements: After a few high-profile outages in earlier years, Solana’s developers have made network robustness a top priority. The 2025 plan includes more rigorous third-party audits and battle-testing of the network under heavy load​. y diversifying its validator client software (e.g. introducing Firedancer) and adding safeguards, Solana aims to prevent single points of failure. New cryptographic techniques and quality-of-service improvements are being rolled out to harden the network against both bugs and malicious attacks — 🔹Popular Projects on Solana DeFi: At its peak, SEED_TVCODER77_ETHBTCDATA:10B + TVL, now recovering post-FTX collapse. NFTs: Second-largest NFT ecosystem after Ethereum, driven by low fees. Gaming: Web3 gaming hub with Star Atlas, Genopets, and move-to-earn projects. DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure): Helium’s migration brought millions of new transactions to Solana. — 🔹CertiK Skynet Score: 91.67 🔹Fundraising: $359.55 M 🔹Some of Solana Investors: Polychain Capital CMS Holding a16z Distributed Global Crypto Fund RockawayX Multicoin Capital — 🔹Seed and Private Sales: Before its public launch, Solana raised capital through several funding rounds. In 2018, a seed round sold SOL tokens at about $0.04 per token, raising approximately $3.17 million​. This was followed by private investment rounds in 2019 where tokens were priced higher roughly $0.20 to $0.25 per SOL, bringing in additional funding (over $12 million in the first private round and $5–6 million in a second round)​ Solana’s public token sale occurred in March 2020 on the CoinList platform, just prior to the network’s launch. 8 million SOL (about 1.6% of the initial 500M supply) were sold in this auction-style sale at a price of $0.22 per SOL. 🔹Solana's TVL and revenue: First, let's examine its Total Value Locked (TVL). Overall, since early November 2023, we have witnessed an upward trend with strong momentum, reflecting growing attention and trust in this ecosystem. Specifically, the amount of locked Solana has increased from 9 million SOL on November 11 to nearly 50 million SOL (March 2, 2025). However, despite the rise in TVL, the network's revenue has been on a downward trend since January 2025, dropping from 70.5 thousand SOL to 2 thousand SOL, a decrease of approximately 97.16%. 🔹Solana On-Chain Analytics Overview Whale Activity & Large Transactions:The number of whale addresses (holding ≥10,000 SOL) peaked in January 2025 but has since slightly declined, suggesting that some large holders may have reduced their positions. On February 24, a significant whale transaction involving 846,613 SOL ($127M) sparked speculation of a potential sell-off. Meanwhile, other whales appear to be accumulating SOL, with Binance withdrawals totaling 95,600 SOL on February 28, a portion of which was moved to staking, indicating confidence in the network's long-term value. Active and New Addresswork Expansion:Despite robust growth in total addresses, daily active usage on Solana has recently tapered off. By late February 2025, daily active addresses dropped to approximately 3.5 million, marking a three-month low for the network. However, Solana continues to see strong adoption, adding over 5 million new addresses per day, even amidst market volatility. While the total address count grows, the decline in daily active addresses to 3.5 million reflects reduced user engagement. Transaction volume has also fallen to $1.5 billion, a four-month low, and stablecoin transfer volume has plummeted from $394 billion to $7.1 billion, signaling a significant slowdown in network activity. 👀 Now that we've reviewed the project, let's move on to the chart to also technically analyze this coin 🗓 Weekly Time Frame As you can see in the weekly timeframe, after breaking the $27.55 level, SOL initiated a strong uptrend and managed to reach its previous ATH at $255.98. Currently, a price box has formed ranging from $126.40 to $255.98, where it has been oscillating for about a year. ⭐ The floor of the box aligns with the 0.236 Fibonacci level, creating a PRZ (Potential Reversal Zone). If the box is breached downward, SOL could begin its corrective wave targeting the significant Fibonacci levels of 0.382, 0.5, and 0.618. A pullback to the SMA99 could also be a plausible scenario. ⚡️ A divergence trigger in the RSI has activated with the break below 50, indicating a potential trend change to bearish, increasing the likelihood of breaking below $126.40. 🔼 If the price finds support at $126.40, there's a high possibility it could retest the upper boundary at $255.98, especially if Bitcoin stabilizes and forms a base. 🗓 Daily Time Frame In the daily timeframe, we can observe more detailed price movements. After being rejected at the $260.88 area, SOL started its downward trajectory, breaking below $180.63, pulling back to this level, and continuing its decline. 🔍 The critical support now stands at $126.01, where the price has touched and initially reacted to this level. A break below this support could lead to further declines in the chart. Important areas in the daily timeframe are $99.81 and $82.39. ✅ The RSI is near a crucial area, close to entering the Oversell zone. Entry into this zone could heighten the probability of a bearish scenario and the breach of $126.01. 🧩 If the price rebounds from this support, as mentioned in the weekly analysis, we could witness a move up to the box ceiling. However, for now, any buying or long positions should be held off until the price forms a new structure and we can identify clear long and short triggers. 📝 Final Thoughts This analysis reflects our opinions and is not financial advice.
