The loss of the\u00a0$130 high-time-frame support\u00a0is particularly significant, as this level had previously served as a key defensive zone for buyers. Its failure on a closing basis suggests that sellers are gaining control and that bullish conviction is fading.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, Solana is retesting the\u00a0Value Area Low (VAL)\u00a0of the established trading range. While this level has provided short-term support in recent sessions, the quality of the reactions is concerning. Bounces from this area have been accompanied by\u00a0low volume, indicating weak demand.<\/p>\n<p>When support holds, but follow-through buying fails to materialize, it often precedes further downside rather than a sustainable reversal, a dynamic echoed as\u00a0DeepSeek AI outlines price outlooks for XRP, Solana, and Dogecoin, reinforcing broader caution across major altcoins.<\/p>\n<p>Compounding the bearish outlook is Solana\u2019s position relative to the\u00a0Point of Control (POC). Price remains below this key volume node, meaning the market is trading outside its equilibrium zone. <\/p>\n<p>In such conditions, prices often seek lower-liquidity pockets where stronger reactions may occur. As long as SOL remains below the POC, downside continuation remains the higher-probability scenario.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>From a liquidity perspective, the chart reveals a\u00a0large pool of resting liquidity below the $100 level, near previous swing lows that have not been tested for an extended period. Markets tend to revisit such areas, especially during periods of structural weakness. <\/p>\n<p>The psychological component of these untested lows is important: traders remember these levels, and stops, bids, and resting orders often accumulate there over time.<\/p>\n<p>This sets the stage for a potential\u00a0capitulation move. Capitulation typically occurs when prolonged weakness gives way to a sharp, accelerated sell-off that clears remaining liquidity and forces late sellers out of positions. In Solana\u2019s case, the combination of lost high-time-frame support, weak volume responses, and untested liquidity below increases the likelihood of such a scenario unfolding, even as\u00a0Bhutan launches its gold-backed TER token on the Solana network, highlighting the contrast between growing ecosystem developments and near-term technical pressure on price.<\/p>\n<p>Market structure also supports this view. Solana has been forming lower highs while struggling to establish meaningful higher lows, a pattern consistent with a developing downtrend. Without a reclaim of the POC and a strong move back above $130, any short-term bounces are likely to be corrective rather than impulsive.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What to expect in the coming price action<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If Solana continues to trade below the Point of Control and fails to reclaim the $130 level in the coming days, the probability of a capitulation move toward the previous swing low below $100 increases significantly. A recovery above these levels would be needed to neutralize the bearish outlook.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solana\u2019s price trades below $130 after losing key high-timeframe support, increasing the risk of a capitulation move toward deeper liquidity below $100.
