The Solana price showed mixed performance over the past week, rising toward $90 before retreating to just above $85. A popular analyst on X, Ali Martinez, said the SOL market appears positioned for a significant move from its current level, citing a volatility setup on the three-day chart.
In an April 24 post on X, Martinez pointed to the contraction of the Bollinger Bands on Solana’s three-day price chart. Bollinger Bands are used to gauge volatility and help identify potential overbought or oversold conditions. He described the squeeze on higher timeframes as a “coiled spring,” suggesting conditions are building for a larger directional move.
Martinez warned that staying within the $77 to $94 range could increase the momentum toward a breakout. He also cautioned against trading within the consolidation, writing that “chasing candles inside this consolidation often leads to being chopped up.” Instead, he said the market should be watched for a clean three-day candle close outside the bands, which he suggested could trigger a volatility spike.
As of this writing, SOL is trading at around $86.26, up about 0.2% over the past 24 hours. CoinGecko data cited in the article shows the altcoin is down nearly 3% over the last seven days.
The article concludes that Solana is “poised for a major upward move” over the coming months, based on the described Bollinger Band squeeze and the expectation of a breakout following a three-day close outside the bands.
