Solana Tests $88 Resistance After Bouncing Off $81

⬤Solana is pushing toward the $88 resistance zone after recovering from support near $81. SOL is now trading around $86-$87, approaching a level that could define its next move. The bounce from $81 has been steady, but the real test begins as price nears the top of its current range.

⬤The chart pattern tells a familiar story: a downtrend, a base formation near lower support, then a gradual push back up. Buyers stepped in around $81, stabilizing the market and giving SOL room to recover. This kind of range rotation between $76 support and $90 resistance has defined Solana’s recent price action, with the market oscillating between well-defined boundaries as traders decide direction.

⬤This isn’t the first time SOL has navigated these levels. A prior analysis covering Solana’s rebound from $80 support toward $100 highlighted how recovery phases often start when buyers defend key floors. The current setup rhymes with that pattern: support holds, momentum builds, then the market approaches resistance with fresh momentum.

⬤What happens at $88 matters. A rejection there keeps SOL range-bound and could send price back toward lower support. But a clean break above the level would signal strengthening bullish momentum, potentially opening the path toward higher targets as noted in analysis of Solana eyeing $100 after breaking the $88 range. The next few sessions around this resistance will likely set the short-term tone.
