Over the past week, SOL has fallen 7%. Prices briefly dropped to $112.24, retesting a critical 12-month support level. Despite the downturn, the network’s fundamentals are still strong. Long-term confidence is shown by the nearly twofold increase in Solana’s total value locked since November 2024, reaching over 53 million SOL. Stablecoin activity on Solana has also increased, rising from $5 billion in January to $12.6 billion, as per DefiLlama data . However, decentralized finance activity has reduced. Decentralized exchanges volume dropped from $252 billion in January to $52 billion in March. On the technical front, Solana is displaying a neutral to bullish trend reversal. After testing the $114.34 support, Solana is currently trading at about $118.55. The next major level is 143.25, although the 128.79 resistance is still a key hurdle. At 43.6, the relative strength index indicates that SOL is still in the neutral-to-oversold range, suggesting a potential upside if buying pressure picks up. Solana technical analysis | Source: crypto.news Bollinger Bands, which show the price near the lower band, indicate a potential recovery. A rejection at the 50-day moving average could signal further drops. If SOL breaks the $128.79 resistance, it will probably move toward $143.25. However, if $114.34 is lost, it could retest its lower support around $112. A clear move above the 50-day MA would confirm the bullish momentum.
