SOL Very Risky SHORT Trade Idea (with Profits)Taking a very risky Short trade here with some of the profit's I made.
Price is coming into the 5 Min Key Level to retest after breaking it once.
Saw a little rejection so I'm just picking up a short with a very very tight Stop-Loss.
Entry Price: 152.22
SL: 152.80
TP1: 151.15
TP2: 150.23
TP3: 149.10
NOTE: This is mainly a gamble trade otherwise I normally don't trade like this. Trade with caution :)
Let me know what you guys think. I appreciate comments.
Good luck and Happy Trading!

SOLANA - Double Top or ready to breakout?Solana, the coin that has performed best against Bitcoin so far, is at a critical level, right now I do the same reasoning as I did on BTC, I observe only for the simple reason that you don't buy under the major resistance, you wait for the Breakout + retest or you wait for a nice support, in this case the long-term reversal points are clear and the first important support I see is very Lower than where the price is now, it's time to use the best of a trader's virtues which is patience
SOL Gamble Scalp Long TradeEntering SOL once again here. I think BTC is trying to stay in a range and so is SOL.
I'm just playing the range with a tight SL with a possible 1:3 Risk-Reward.
Entry Price: 142.96
SL: 142.44
TP1: 143.99
TP2: 144.92
I took the trade based on the 5min TF. It can go either way, so definitely risky.
If we go down to the Key Level and it's respecting the support, I might add some more. But given that it has already retested the support level, it's not that strong. Let's see!
Let me know what you guys think.
SOLANA - On the VERGE of CRITICAL TerritoryIt has been trading lower and lower and is now approaching the most important level in this region: $122.
It's hard to predict what will happen once it reaches that level. Both bulls and bears have a strong case to try and take control of that area.
As for me, I will remain neutral in this area unless:
There is a clear retest of $122 followed by a reclaim of the EQLs at $134.
There is a deviation below $122 with a strong reclaim.
Alternatively:
I might consider taking a significant short position below $122.
This level is crucial for bulls if the price is to continue moving higher. September is becoming increasingly interesting.
SOL Short Trade Round 3 [Very Risky]Trying this for the third time. BTC pumped and so did the other alt's.
Idea is to short it at the previous 15 min key level since we got a rejection there.
Entry price is: 148.07
Target prices are listed on the chart:
TP1: 147.49
TP2: 146.08
TP3: 144.83
TP4: 141.90
SL: 149.12
Note: This is a risky trade, but I do like the risk reward ratio here so just using my profits to trade.
Ideally if the price goes below 147, it'd be a safe short from there.
Do not chase the trade and do you own research before entering.
Happy trading!
There is currently a MASSIVE Cup & Handle in SOLANA!!SOLANA (SOL) has been building a massive cup-and-handle formation on the weekly chart that has taken 3 years and 8 months to achieve. If SOL breaks out of this pattern to the upside, the gains could be unbelievable!
Good luck, and always use a stop-loss!
SOL Short Trade Round 2Risking the winning from the last trade again for a Short:
Entry: 145.24
SL: 146 (Tight... Very tight)
Target Prices same as last time:
Target: Moving Target (143.89, 142.86. 141.74, 139.81)
This one is a comparatively risky trade, so not expecting much from this, but just taking the risk with profit money since this is a strong key level for both 1Hour and 15 min time frame.
Depending on the price action, I might move the SL a little higher.
Solana, the best and the worse casesToward November 2023 #Solana exploded from ~$20 all the way to ~$210 in March 2024
Using simple Fib #retracement we should have come back to about $115 ... and we did, on August 2024
So we are now in a bullish descending triangle.
Best case :
Green line, we keep going up over the next 2 or 3 weeks and break out past $170 in the middle of next month.
There is a strong area of #resistance around $165 so breaking past that would be quite #bullish.
Likely case :
Blue line, we keep going up over the next 2 weeks and we bounce back at the area of resistance, ~$165 and we go back down to the support around $130 and we then go back up to eventually breakout sometimes next year.
Worse case :
Red line, again, we keep going up over the next 2 weeks and we bounce back at the area of resistance, ~$165 and we go back down ... but we break past $130 and we go back down to $120, (0.5 fib retracement).
Plan
Enter: Now
SL: $129
Target: anything past $500 (remember this is weekly chart, not 5 minutes)
Look out for trend reversal around $162 ... and close your trade if we break trend as it would be the likely case.
Note that FTX will be refunding some/all of the holders toward the beginning of October, but they will be refunded in US Dollar, so they are very likely to use their money to buy back Crypto, (they were traders afterall and they are well aware of the upcoming bull market).
SOLUSDT Poised for a Major Move—Are You Ready?Yello, Paradisers! Have you been following #Solana's recent moves? Could it be headed for a significant correction before another rally?
💎After an impressive performance that outclassed many other coins, #SOLUSDT is struggling to break through resistance, largely due to Bitcoin's influence. But don’t be fooled by the stall! A potential dip to key support levels might be just what we need for the next leg up.
💎SOLUSDT is likely to drop to a crucial support zone between $123 - $116. This zone has previously acted as resistance and is where we last saw major liquidity being cleared out.
💎If the $123 - $116 area doesn't hold, the next probable stop is around $109.83, a significant support level that could offer a solid bounce opportunity, provided there's enough buying volume.
💎If SOLUSDT gathers enough strength after testing these supports, watch for resistance at $139.19, followed by $148.5, and a strong barrier at $160.4.
💎The bullish outlook flips bearish if we see a 12-hour candle close below $98.243. A breakdown here could shift the momentum and lead to a deeper bearish move.
Remember Paradisers , patience and discipline are key to riding this out. As always, we're monitoring every move closely to ensure we capitalize on the best opportunities! Stay sharp, Paradisers!

Federal Reserve Cuts Interest Rates by 50 BPS, Crypto RalliesMarket Update - September 20th, 2024
Takeaways
The Federal Reserve cuts rates: The Federal Reserve announced Wednesday it will cut the federal benchmark interest rate by a half-percentage point (50 basis points), lowering the range to between 4.75% and 5%. Crypto markets responded well to the move, with the price of bitcoin pushing past $63,000.
US crypto legislation still possible this year: US senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) said in an interview Tuesday she thinks crypto legislation could be passed during the lame-duck session of Congress.
US spot bitcoin ETFs pull in $187 million in inflows: US spot bitcoin ETFs drew $187 million in inflows Tuesday, marking the fourth consecutive day of inflows after a significant drawdown.
Republicans ask for clarity on crypto airdrops: US representative Patrick McHenry (R-NC) and other top Republican lawmakers sent a letter to SEC chair Gary Gensler asking for clarity on crypto airdrops.
Federal Reserve Cuts Interest Rates by 50 BPS, Crypto Rallies
The Federal Reserve announced Wednesday it is lowering the benchmark federal funds rate by a half-percentage point (50 basis points) to between 4.75% and 5%. It marked the first interest rate cut in more than four years and signaled the Federal Reserve is ready to ease up on its fight against inflation.
The move marked the first time since 2008 the Federal Reserve had cut interest rates by 50 basis points at one meeting. Many analysts had expected a quarter-point percentage cut, but cooling inflation and a soft labor market allowed Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell to be more aggressive. In August, the Consumer Price Index (CPI), a key inflation metric, dropped to 2.5% year-over-year, roughly hitting Powell’s 2% inflation target.
The long-anticipated move sparked the broader markets. And crypto prices also rallied, with bitcoin pushing to roughly $63,500 and ether increasing to roughly $2,350 respectively.
A low interest-rate environment is widely viewed as a greenshoot for risk assets including crypto, but it remains to be seen if a rate-cutting campaign will ultimately shoot bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to all-time highs.

In the daily chart, the Solana price action reveals a new bull cycle gaining momentum. Over the last three days, the Sol price has increased by 14.50%, creating three consecutive bullish candles.
As Solana hits the $150 psychological mark, it trades with an intraday gain of 5.47%. The overall bull run in the last two weeks has witnessed a price surge of 20.52%, taking support from the crucial level of $125.
With the rounding reversal, the SOL price approaches the neckline near the $160-$163 supply zone. Hence, the tectonic shift in Solana supports the bullish rally and teases an uptrend continuation.

SOLUSDT - UniverseMetta - Analysis#SOLUSDT - UniverseMetta - Analysis
Formation of a 3-wave structure from the lower boundary of the correction movement, since the movement is lateral, one can expect a move to the upper boundary. In the opposite scenario, for further decline, it is necessary to exit the sideways movement. Since rebounds from the boundary are within 50%, one can see an excellent risk/profit ratio of 1:5 and 1:7.
Target: 149.75 - 187.46
#SOL/USDT#SOL
We have an upward trend pattern on a 1-hour frame, the price is moving within it and adhering to its boundaries well
We have a resistance area in green at a price of 140 after the price touched it and rebounded from it
We have a trend of stability below the moving average of 100
We have a downward trend on the RSI indicator that supports further decline

SOL: Bears in ControlWill Solana Hold the Line at $127?
Solana's price action is tense, trading at $127, a key psychological and technical support level. The recent decline has been driven by negative sentiment, exacerbated by institutional outflows and overall crypto market weakness. However, this is also where the market could flip. Traders should be on high alert for any signs of reversal or continuation as SOL approaches oversold conditions across multiple indicators.
Momentum Breakdown: Bearish but Ready for a Rebound?
The 1H RSI is deep in oversold territory, signaling that sellers may be running out of steam. With the price pressing against the lower Bollinger Band, a quick bounce isn’t out of the question. The MACD shows lingering bearish momentum, but the gap between the histogram bars is narrowing, hinting at a potential bottoming out soon.
On the 4H timeframe, the RSI remains low but slightly more stable. Volume spikes on the 4H chart could indicate that larger players are preparing for a potential reversal or trying to push the market further down to scoop up cheaper tokens.
Watch for a Bounce or Breakdown
Bullish Scenario:
If SOL manages to defend the $127 level, we could see a short-term bounce to $132.50, which aligns with the 50-day moving average and upper Bollinger Band on shorter timeframes. A successful breach of $132.50 would indicate strength, and the next target would be $138, where multiple resistance levels cluster.
Bearish Scenario:
A sustained break below $127 could trigger a sell-off down to $123.28, a secondary support level. If that fails, expect deeper pain with $110 in sight, especially if the broader market stays bearish. A drop in OBV supports this negative outlook, signaling continued distribution.
Trader Takeaway: Timing is Everything
This is a high-risk, high-reward moment for Solana traders. Watch for a bounce at $127 for a quick long trade, but be prepared to cut losses quickly if the level breaks. Volatility is likely, and setting stop losses tightly is crucial here. If you’re a swing trader, a break above $132.50 could offer a safer entry for a ride up to $138 or even $150 in a stronger market rebound.
For now, the best strategy is patience and caution—the next 24-48 hours will reveal whether SOL has the strength to rally or if the bears will tighten their grip.
With Solana teetering at $127, now is the time for decisive action. If you're eyeing a bounce, this is your potential entry point, but be ready to exit quickly if support breaks. Set tight stop-losses below $127 to protect against a further drop, and monitor volume closely for signs of a reversal. If $132.50 is breached, it could be the start of a broader recovery, giving you a prime chance to ride the wave higher. In this volatile zone, quick reactions and well-placed orders will be key to staying ahead. Stay engaged, don’t miss the breakout!
SOL 2 Parabolic ChannelsThese 2 parabolic channels point $79-$81 so soon.
Look at candle contacts with parabolic lines and how the price used them so far.
There's similarity between current view and Ftx crash times for 4-6 weeks. Currently i believe that this similarity will continue like almost this way.
SOL Trends Trends TrendsTrends aren't just linear, they should also be analyzed parabolically. In fact, parabolic trends are one step ahead of linear trends. Because they better show the slope and movement of the price.
In this chart work, I created a long-term setup for Solana using linear and parabolic trends.
Many of us may have strong bullish sentiments about the fourth quarter of 2024 and believe that things will be wrapped up in this quarter. But I think there's something we're overlooking.
The cycles have literally been completed every 4 years so far, and this hasn't changed yet. This won't change again. I believe the cycle finale will happen in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Both historical processes and the chart tell me this. Also, my bold price target for Solana is $710 - $750. But first i think we should see dump action.
Is your ETH and SOL working for you !?The crypto market never sleeps which means leaving your holdings stagnant could mean missing out on significant opportunities.
So it’s time to ask yourself:
Are your assets maximizing their potential, or are they just gathering virtual dust?
You wouldn’t leave all your money in a low interest savings account, so why do it with your crypto?
The idea is to put your investments to work, so they keep earning returns without you lifting a finger. I’ll walk you through exactly how to read it and use it to your advantage.
But that’s just the beginning, we’ll also be covering:
-Yield strategies: A breakdown of the strategies we use to generate yield.
-Pros and cons: The advantages and drawbacks of each strategy.
Not sure what options are best for you?
Are you letting your capital sit idle?
Worried about security risks?
This analysis is about to change that .I’ll show you how to maximize your returns and crush those security fears, so you can confidently put your assets to work
Let's dive right in and kick things off with the ‘crowd favorite’ of yield strategies: staking
Staking is exclusive to Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchains and their associated tokens.
Meaning you cannot gain staking yield from Bitcoin, for example, because it is a Proof of Work (PoW) blockchain. by staking your tokens like CRYPTOCAP:ETH or CRYPTOCAP:SOL , you receive a portion of newly minted tokens, effectively earning yield while playing a vital role in securing the network.
If you’re not staking, you could be missing out on significant gains, with potential returns ranging from 3% to 18% APY. that’s why many investors choose to stake their assets rather than let them sit idle
Staking has become a widely adopted strategy, with staking ratios (amount staked vs. unstaked) sitting between 20% and 80% on most POS blockchains In fact, a staggering $520 billion is currently staked across the top PoS blockchains, underscoring its popularity as a method for generating additional income.
Assuming an average 5% reward rate, that equates to $25 billion in staking rewards. That’s massive.
Despite the appeal of earning extra income through staking, becoming a solo staker can be technically challenging which is why staking providers like Lido, Rocket Pool, and Jito have emerged.
They handle network validation for the rest of us, while maximizing our staking yield.
Let’s break down the pros and cons of using a staking provider:
Pros:
✅ Security and efficiency: Our tokens are put to work securely and efficiently, contributing to the network’s security without us having to manage it all ourselves.
✅ Maximized rewards: We earn the majority of staking rewards without needing to handle the technical complexities, making it a hassle-free way to generate income.
✅ Liquidity retention: We receive liquid tokens as proof of our staked assets, allowing us to stay flexible and use them in other DeFi opportunities.
Cons:
❌ Fees: These providers typically charge a fee ranging from 8% to 25% for their validation services, which can slightly reduce your overall yield.
❌ Smart contract risks: There are inherent risks associated with smart contracts, such as bugs and/or vulnerabilities, that could potentially impact your staked assets.
By weighing these pros and cons, you can decide whether outsourcing your staking through liquid staking providers is the right strategy for you.
Ok, so if that’s the case how do we go about choosing the right liquid staking provider?
Here are some key factors to consider when selecting a provider:
1/ Reputation and security
Track record: Look for providers with a solid track record and a strong reputation in the DeFi space.
Security measures: Ensure the provider employs robust security measures, such as smart contract audits.
2/ Total volume locked
TVL: Check how much liquidity your chosen provider has attracted.
TVL is a quick and effective measure of the broader market's trust in a provider, as it reflects the total amount of assets currently staked or locked in their protocol, valued in dollars.
Feel free to use DefiLlama, which ranks all liquid staking providers by TVL.
Simply select the blockchain you’re interested in, and you’ll see the top players in the space, giving you a clear view of where the most assets are being staked and which providers are leading the market.
3/ Yield rates
Competitive yields: Compare the staking yields offered by different providers. While higher yields are attractive, they should not come at the expense of security or reliability.
Fee structure: Be aware of the fee structure. Liquid staking providers typically charge a small fee for their services, which can impact your overall returns.
4/ Liquidity and flexibility
Liquid staking tokens (LSTs): Check if the liquid tokens issued by the provider are widely accepted across DeFi platforms and have enough liquidity. The more integration and liquidity these tokens have, the better.
Redemption options: Some providers offer instant or flexible redemption options for your staked tokens, which can be crucial if you need quick access to your assets.
5/ Decentralization and governance
Decentralization: Providers that are more decentralized tend to be more resilient to risks such as regulatory actions or central points of failure.
Governance participation: Some providers offer governance rights with their tokens, allowing you to have a say in the protocol’s future direction. This can be an added benefit for those interested in being more involved in the ecosystem.
6/ Community and support
Active Community: A strong, active community can be a good indicator of a provider’s health and future prospects. Engage with the community to gauge the level of transparency and support.
so while you trading and trying to maximize your gains Its good to stake some of your HODL bag as well
