The increase in liquidations<br \/>\n        amplified the downside, with SOL especially vulnerable given its higher<br \/>\n        volatility and speculative positioning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;margin: 7px 0;font-size: 15px\">Nevertheless, Solana eventually rebounded as<br \/>\n        Binance pledged to cover customer losses and concerns gradually eased.<br \/>\n        Improving sentiment around US-Iran negotiations also helped support risk<br \/>\n        appetite.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;margin: 7px 0;font-size: 15px\">Looking ahead, the macro backdrop remains<br \/>\n        challenging amid inflation risks, growth concerns, expectations of further Fed<br \/>\n        tightening and geopolitical uncertainty limiting a sustained recovery. Solana is<br \/>\n        also sensitive to changes in overall crypto market sentiment, given its<br \/>\n        higher-beta characteristics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;margin: 7px 0;font-size: 15px\">We will likely need a breakthrough in US-Iran<br \/>\n        negotiations or more dovish Fed signals to change the current bearish trend. A<br \/>\n        surprising Republican sweep in the US midterm elections could also provide support<br \/>\n        through expectations of further fiscal expansion. A Democratic sweep, on the<br \/>\n        other hand, could lead to more downside for SOL if negotiations with Iran fail<br \/>\n        to progress or, worse, Trump decides to escalate the conflict.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;margin: 7px 0;font-size: 15px\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0 0 11px;font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;font-size: 15px\">SOLANA TECHNICAL ANALYSIS \u2013 DAILY TIMEFRAME<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;margin: 7px 0;font-size: 15px\">On the daily chart, we can see that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/symbols\/SOLUSD\/\" rel=\"follow\">Solana<\/a>broke through the key 97.00 support after the Binance hack and it\u2019s<br \/>\n            now approaching the major upward trendline. We can expect the buyers to lean on<br \/>\n            the trendline, with a defined risk below it, to position for a rally into the<br \/>\n            148.00 level. The sellers, on the other hand, will want to see the price<br \/>\n            breaking lower to increase the bearish bets into the 75.00 handle next.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;margin: 7px 0;font-size: 15px\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0 0 11px;font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;font-size: 15px\">SOLANA TECHNICAL ANALYSIS \u2013 4 HOUR TIMEFRAME<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;margin: 7px 0;font-size: 15px\">On the 4 hour chart, we have a downward<br \/>\n        trendline defining the bearish structure. If we get a pullback into the<br \/>\n        trendline, we can expect the sellers to lean on it, with a defined risk above<br \/>\n        it, to target a break below the major upward trendline. The buyers, on the<br \/>\n        other hand, will want to see the price breaking higher to pile in for a rally<br \/>\n        into the 113.00 level next.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;margin: 7px 0;font-size: 15px\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;margin: 7px 0;font-size: 15px\">SOLANA TECHNICAL ANALYSIS \u2013 1 HOUR TIMEFRAME<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 7px 0;font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif;font-size: 16px\">On the 1 hour chart, we<br \/>\n        have a minor downward trendline defining the bearish momentum on this timeframe.<br \/>\n        The sellers will likely lean on the trendline, with a defined risk above it, to<br \/>\n        keep pushing into new lows. The buyers, on the other hand, will look for a<br \/>\n        break higher to extend the pullback into the major downward trendline.
