The crypto market has been going through a rough patch lately. After an impressive rally in late 2024, many major cryptocurrencies have taken a sharp hit — and Solana (SOL) is no exception. Since reaching its peak of $295 on January 20, SOL has dropped by a staggering 44% over the last 90 days, now trading around $124.

Naturally, this steep decline has shaken investor confidence. But the technical setup is hinting at a potential rebound.

Cup and Handle Pattern: A Bullish Signal?

Technical analysis suggests that Solana (SOL) might be preparing for a significant breakout as it forms a cup and handle pattern on the weekly chart. This pattern, often associated with strong bullish momentum, is a classic continuation structure that typically signals the end of a consolidation phase before a new uptrend begins.

According to crypto analyst Ali, The cup portion of the pattern began forming after SOL faced rejection from the $295 resistance level on January 20. Following this rejection, SOL experienced a sharp pullback, gradually rounding out a base before stabilizing around $125. This phase represents the accumulation period, where buyers start stepping in, preventing further declines.

Now, Solana appears to be in the handle formation phase. This handle is characterized by a smaller consolidation period, typically signaling the final shakeout before a breakout attempt. If this pattern plays out as expected, SOL could make another move toward the $295 neckline resistance, which remains a key level to watch.

Ali’s analysis further suggests that if Solana successfully breaks above the $295 neckline with strong volume, it could trigger a significant bullish rally., with major targets surpassing the $3,800 level. However, for this scenario to materialize, SOL needs to confirm the breakout with sustained buying pressure. Failure to do so could lead to

Final Thoughts

Solana’s recent price action suggests that the market is at a crucial turning point. If the cup and handle pattern plays out, SOL could be on the verge of a strong recovery, possibly surpassing its previous highs. However, traders should keep an eye on the $295 resistance level. A decisive breakout above this zone with strong volume confirmation could pave the way for the next major bull run.

That said, external factors such as macroeconomic conditions and broader crypto sentiment will play a crucial role in determining whether Solana can sustain its bullish momentum.
