What’s Next for SOL Price?

Solana price has established a robust support level in the past year around $125. Although the SOL price in the weekly timeframe has been forming a potential reversal pattern, the shorter timeframe suggests potential bullish sentiment.

— Ali (@ali_charts) July 8, 2025 According to crypto analyst Ali Martinez, SOL price must hold above the support level around $149 to invalidate possible capitulation in the near term. In the four-hour timeframe, the SOL price has been forming a symmetrical triangular pattern after breaking out of a falling logarithmic trend.

A consistent rally above the resistance level around $157 will trigger a fresh bullish rally towards the next major liquidity level around $200.
