Last week, we noted that Solana triggered an inverse head and shoulders pattern by pushing higher on Sunday, October 20. This pattern has a target of $201 per coin. Interestingly, the price reached as high as $178 before being rejected lower, forming a lower high than the high from July 28. We can now draw a descending trend line by connecting the highs from March, April, and July and the recent high on October 24. Support runs through the September 6 low at $120 per coin. Together, these lines form a bearish descending triangle.
What's interesting is that Solana's price is now testing the trend line of this pattern. If it breaks above, the pattern suggests a potential target as high as $249 per coin—a strong 39% gain. However, trading a breakout from the descending triangle trend line is challenging, yet with the smaller inverse head-and-shoulders pattern, triggering this pattern becomes more plausible. Additionally, Bitcoin's strong upward momentum is providing further support.
