The token is currently trading in a tight range, with sellers defending key technical levels above and buyers stepping in below, keeping price action compressed.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time of writing, Solana is hovering around the $132\u2013$133 USDT zone on the SOLUSDT composite. This places the asset roughly 1% to 1.5% lower over the past 24 hours, even though some intraday charts briefly showed a rebound of around 2% to 3% from local lows. The mixed signals highlight the fragile nature of the current consolidation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From a technical perspective, <a href=\"https:\/\/solana.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/solana.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SOL <\/a>remains below its short- and medium-term moving averages on the daily chart. These averages are still sloping downward, a classic sign that the dominant trend continues to favor the bears. However, the gap between price and these moving averages has started to narrow, suggesting selling pressure may be easing rather than accelerating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Momentum indicators support this view. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) remains in negative territory, confirming that bearish momentum has not fully disappeared. That said, the pace of downside momentum appears to be slowing. At the same time, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is holding in the lower-middle range instead of dipping into deeply oversold territory, indicating that the market is cooling off rather than capitulating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the upside, Solana faces immediate resistance near a short-term ceiling that has capped recent recovery attempts. A clean move above this area would be an early sign that buyers are regaining confidence. If that happens, the next test would likely come at higher resistance zones where declining moving averages and previous rejection levels align. Failure to break above these zones would reinforce the idea that any bounce is still corrective within a broader downtrend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Support remains intact for now, with a nearby floor holding the current range. A decisive daily close below this support would shift attention to lower demand zones and could signal that bearish momentum is returning. Order book data adds another layer to the picture. Thick bid walls are clustered below the current price, showing strong buying interest that could cushion further declines. However, if those bids are absorbed, the downside could accelerate quickly. On the flip side, heavy sell walls above suggest sellers are actively defending higher prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking at the bigger picture, Solana\u2019s recent weakness comes after an extended period of strong performance. Despite the 2025 drawdown, SOL remains one of the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, estimated around $70\u201380 billion mid-year. While year-to-date returns are down roughly 35% to 40%, this follows explosive gains of about 880% in 2023 and nearly 100% in 2024, making the current year more of a consolidation phase than a structural breakdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For now, Solana appears to be in transition rather than trending decisively. Whether this range resolves into a sustainable recovery or another leg lower will depend on how price reacts to the clearly defined resistance and support levels in the sessions ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/bitcoin-9\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/bitcoin-9\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bitcoin Faces $75K Risk as Japan Rate Decision Nears<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solana (SOL) is showing signs of stabilization after a recent pullback, but the broader picture suggests the market is still &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-container\"><a title=\"Solana Stuck in a Narrow Range as Bears Guard Key Levels\" class=\"read-more button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/solana-3\/#more-1870\" aria-label=\"Read more about Solana Stuck in a Narrow Range as Bears Guard Key Levels\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1865,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[2119,2128,2122,2125,2126,2124,2123,1428,2129,2121,2120,2127],"class_list":["post-1870","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cryptocurrency","tag-sol-price-consolidation-phase","tag-solana-bearish-trend-outlook","tag-solana-crypto-market-update","tag-solana-macd-and-rsi-analysis","tag-solana-moving-average-analysis","tag-solana-order-book-bid-and-ask-walls","tag-solana-price-forecast-2025","tag-solana-price-prediction-today","tag-solana-short-term-price-outlook","tag-solana-support-and-resistance-levels","tag-solana-technical-analysis-daily-chart","tag-solana-trading-below-moving-averages","resize-featured-image"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Untitled-design-2025-12-15T201857.268.webp","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1870","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1870"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1870\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1871,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1870\/revisions\/1871"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1865"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<!-- This website is optimized by Airlift.
