| **24 h range** | **$78.32 – $87.00** |

### Market Bias
- **Bullish momentum** – SOL has jumped **+5.68 %** in the last 24 h with strong volume, indicating buying pressure is still intact.
- Price is **testing the swing‑high at $87.00**; a clean breakout would open a move toward the **$92 – $95** resistance zone.
- The market is currently **holding above the $78.32 swing‑low**, so immediate downside risk is limited.

### Recommended Trade
**→ Go Long** (the higher‑probability direction at this moment).

| Parameter | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **Entry zone** | **$84.40 – $84.70** (current price is $84.5). You may wait for a tiny pull‑back to **$84.00** for a tighter stop. |
| **Take‑Profit 1** | **$87.00** (just above today’s high) |
| **Take‑Profit 2** | **$92.50** (first resistance cluster) |
| **Take‑Profit 3** | **$94.50** (next resistance cluster) |
| **Stop‑Loss** | **$78.20** (just below the $78.32 swing‑low; gives ≈ 1 : 2.5‑1 : 3 risk‑reward) |
| **Risk/Reward** | ≈ 1 : 2.5 (SL ≈ $6.3, TP₁ ≈ $2.5, TP₂ ≈ $8.0, TP₃ ≈ $12.5) |

#### Why this setup?
1. **Momentum:** +5.68 % in 24 h with volume ≈ $746 M signals robust buying pressure.
2. **Entry near current price** lets you ride the continuation while keeping downside risk limited.
3. **TP‑1** locks in profit just above the immediate resistance; **TP‑2** and **TP‑3** give room for a larger move if the breakout sustains.
4. **SL** below the swing‑low caps loss if the rally reverses and price falls back toward the **$75‑$75.5** support zone.

### Alternative (only if you expect a quick rejection at the high)
| Parameter | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **Entry** | **$87.00 – $87.5** (if a bearish reversal candle appears at the $87 high). |
| **Take‑Profit** | **$84.5** (near the recent swing‑low). |
| **Stop‑Loss** | **$87.5** (just above the high). |
| **R/R** | ≈ 1 : 2. |

*Use this only when you see a clear rejection candle at the $87 level and a noticeable drop in volume.*
---- Quick Checklist
1. **Is price holding above $84.4?** – If yes, the long bias stays intact.
2. **Does a 4‑h candle close above $87 with volume ≥ $800 M?** – If yes, you can enter on the breakout and aim for TP₁/TP₂/TP₃.
3. **Is funding staying neutral?** – A sharp move into negative territory could hint at an upcoming short‑side squeeze; consider tightening the stop.
4. **RSI still < 70?** – If it climbs into the high‑70s, upside may be near‑term over‑bought; you might tighten risk.
