Solana continues to trade within a cautious consolidation phase, with price action suggesting that a temporary recovery may develop before the market makes its next major directional move. While short-term momentum has started to stabilize, SOL still faces key resistance barriers that could determine whether the current bounce evolves into a stronger breakout or fades into another corrective wave. Solana Corrective Recovery Scenario Begins To Take Shape Focusing on the 1-hour timeframe, Elliott Waves Academy identifies a potential short-term recovery for Solana. This corrective move is modeled as wave (2)/(B), likely taking the shape of a complex double zigzag structure as the market attempts to stabilize after recent downward momentum. Related Reading: Solana Fails Channel Breakout—$78 Support The Next Destination? To confirm this recovery path, a decisive breakout above the upper boundary of the current diagonal pattern is key. Additionally, clearing the key resistance level tied to the previous bearish wave would significantly bolster the case for this upward correction, which is expected to evolve within the defined price channel shown on the chart. The primary target for this relief rally resides within the 50% to 61.8% retracement zone of the preceding decline, with potential for an extension up to the 78.6% level. Ultimately, the structural outlook depends on how the price interacts with this resistance zone. If the recovery gives way to renewed selling, the area will likely act as a focal point for seller concentration. However, should the market establish higher lows and follow up with a series of impulsive waves, the trend would shift toward sustained upside potential. Solana Remains Stuck Inside Broad Range Structure MCO Global DE noted that Solana continues to trade sideways within the same broad range structure that has controlled price action for several months. According to the analysts, the market still lacks a convincing breakout signal, while recent movement on the lower timeframes is dominated by short-term noise. Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Rebound Faces Major Test Near Key Resistance Zone The expert explained that the leading scenario remains largely unchanged, with several important support zones continuing to hold. Immediate support is seen around $81.28, while significant support regions remain between $71.92 and $77.96. MCO Global DE added that another short-term dip cannot be ruled out before Solana attempts a renewed recovery within the larger B-wave structure. At the same time, the analysts warned that the market remains vulnerable to deeper corrective movement as long as the key resistance around the $96 level remains intact. Overall, MCO Global DE believes Solana is still trapped inside a large range-bound structure, with no clear confirmation of a larger bullish breakout at this stage. Until buyers successfully overcome the major resistance levels, particularly near $96 and eventually $110, the broader market outlook is expected to remain cautious and neutral.
