Moreover, the technical outlook suggests a potential upside breakout, with bulls aiming for levels above $160.
Institutional investors keep accumulating SOL
The institutional demand for SOL continues to grow since its launch on October 28. SoSoValue data shows that spot Solana ETFs have recorded positive net inflows every week since their launch, with total net assets reaching $907.18 million on Monday. This persistent ETF inflow, despite recent price consolidation, suggests institutions are buying dips rather than exiting positions, signaling a bullish outlook for SOL.
On the derivatives side, CoinGlass’s long-to-short ratio for SOL reads 1.07, the highest level in over a month. The ratio above one suggests bullish sentiment in the market, as traders are betting on the asset price to rally.
Solana Price Forecast: SOL on the verge of a breakout
Solana’s price has been trading within a falling wedge pattern (formed by connecting multiple highs and lows with two trendlines since early October). At the time of writing on Monday, SOL nears the upper trendline boundary of this pattern.
If SOL breaks above the pattern, it could extend the rally toward the next daily resistance at $160.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart reads 42, pointing upward toward the neutral level of 50, indicating fading bearish momentum. For the bullish momentum to be sustained, the RSI must move above the neutral level.
However, if SOL faces a correction, it could extend the decline toward the November 21 low of $121.66.
