Investor euphoria in the Web3 space surged after Jerome Powell’s highly anticipated speech at Jackson Hole.
This speech has now put a September rate cut in play, which has temporarily lifted risk assets, including Bitcoin (BTC) and altcoins.
Market observers are particularly excited about Solana (SOL), as it continues its uptrend, having gained about 60% over the past two months.
One of the main catalysts behind this optimism has been the aggressive stockpiling by NASDAQ-listed firms like Upexi and DeFi Development Corp.
But traders’ excitement in the near term is stemming from Solana’s technical outlook. As SOL trades near the above the psychological $200 mark, it has formed a textbook bullish pattern on its daily chart.
This has put the $250 target within sight, a level the altcoin has not reached since January of this year.
That kind of setup has traders on edge, as Solana is now entering a zone where even small shifts in momentum could unlock its next major rally.
Solana Confirms Bullish Pattern as Price Hits Six-Month High
SOL’s recent break above the $205 resistance has helped the coin reach its six-month high. Solana bulls were desperately trying to jump above this barrier, as the price had tested the $205 resistance three times over the past month.
While doing so, SOL continued to register a streak of higher lows since late June, forming a strong trendline support (white, dashed) on its daily chart.
The price action, especially over the past six weeks, confirms a classic ascending triangle pattern.
It’s a bullish pattern where sellers temporarily defend a resistance level, but the trend shifts as more buying pressure builds up in the market.
Now that Solana has broken its neckline resistance at $205, a sustained position above this level sets the stage for a breakout rally toward $250.
On the other hand, traders should also be on the lookout for a potential close below the $205 mark, as that would confirm a bull trap.
In this case, the price could retest the baseline at $180 before a likely rebound, continuing its long-term uptrend.
Even popular crypto analyst Ali suggested that Solana is currently in a favorable accumulation zone.
He believes the chart setup on the 12H timeframe indicates a potential breakout, with SOL potentially rallying as high as $360 in the coming months.
With the breakout confirmed on the charts, the focus now shifts to Solana’s technical indicators, which are adding further weight to the bullish case.
Bullish Indicators and ETF Momentum Put SOL on Track for $250
Solana’s technical indicators are lining up in its favor. The RSI is around 63, indicating that the coin hasn’t overheated yet and still has room to climb before reaching the overbought zone above 70.
At the same time, the MACD jumped above the Signal line to confirm rising buying pressure.
As long as SOL stays above the $205–$210 band, these signals support the case for a breakout rally toward $250.
In the meantime, VanEck has recently filed an S-1 for a JitoSOL ETF, making it the first Solana ETF designed to include staking rewards. This filing comes shortly after Grayscale’s proposal in July to convert its Solana Trust.
Staking ETFs could open the door to more institutional demand, since they offer access to Solana’s roughly 8% staking yield, while also reducing liquid supply in the market.
Solana’s 30-day staking rate has already jumped to 68% following the news. The next key milestone will be the SEC’s feedback on amended filings by August 30.
Solana’s strong technical case, combined with growing institutional interest, has paved the way for bulls to retest $250 and beyond in the near future.
