Solana (SOL) is trading near $76.84, gaining 0.69% over the past 24 hours amid a relatively calm market. Technical signals and anticipation of an upcoming network upgrade are supporting bullish sentiment, while the nearest target is the $78–$78.70 zone, which will determine the next momentum move. According to analyst Ali Charts, a parallel channel pattern has formed on SOL’s daily chart, with the midpoint of the range landing right at $78. Prices are currently just 1.5% below that level, and a daily close above this resistance would open the way to the upper boundary of the channel near $100. Additional positive signals are coming from the Tom DeMark Sequential indicator, which has signaled a possible rise over 1–4 candles, as well as the “golden crossover” of the MACD moving averages. On the weekly timeframe, $84 remains the key level. A breakout above it would strengthen the bullish scenario and make targets of $97–$100 more realistic. Another analyst, Scient, is focusing on the 12-hour chart, where Solana is attempting to break out of a month-long consolidation. The first confirmation of buyer strength would be holding the $77 level. Support lies in the $72–$73 zone, and losing it would send the asset back into a range. From a fundamental perspective, the network upgrade scheduled for the week of August 17 will reduce block time from 400 to 350 ms, while governance proposal SIMD-0553 could increase daily SOL burns. A CoinShares and Token Terminal report named Solana the leading blockchain outside Ethereum by spot activity in tokenized real-world assets. Institutional investor interest is also growing: according to Wintermute, in the first half of 2026, institutional investors’ OTC flow accounted for 72% of trades, compared with 59% a year earlier, creating a long-term tailwind for major coins such as SOL. If $97 breaks, the $100 target becomes a natural stopping point before the next resistance near $116. The long-term weekly chart presented by analyst Rod allows for an extension to the $176 and $210 levels on the Fibonacci grid if SOL establishes itself above $90–$100. However, until the price clears the $78 and $84 thresholds, the scenario remains unconfirmed; a return below $69 would bring selling pressure back.$SOL ‌

$SOL Long 🚀 Entry: 76.8 - 77.0 SL: 74.7 TP: 77.5 - 77.88 - 78.5 Hold the hard support level with strong buying volume; buyers keep piling in continuously. Once it breaks through 77, it will shoot straight up and press down on the Shorts’ heads immediately. In this trade, if you don’t enter to buy, then just wait for the next breakout candle to form and jump in to take profits.

🚨 THE NEXT BTC BULL RUN COULD BE CLOSER THAN YOU THINK 👀 BTC is once again coming down toward the 200-Week Moving Average, a level that has historically been followed by major bullish moves. If history repeats, this could become another strong accumulation zone before the next Bull Run. Personally, I’ll be accumulating SPOT in $BTC , $ETH , $SOL , ONDO, LINK and TAO. My plan is to invest 5% of my planned capital into each coin for every additional $5K downside in BTC. This is a long-term plan, so I’m not looking to sell on small moves. I’ll be holding these positions and looking for 50–100%+ profits. Are you preparing for the next Bull Run? 🔥 #MoonshotAIPreIPOsOpen #NFPShockSpikesRateCutOdds #StockTradingShareChallenge #AppleTestsCXMTMemoryChips
