Solana’s price is now sitting inside a crucial support zone, and what happens in this region will decide whether the next major bullish wave can truly begin. The broader correction has brought SOL to a defining moment, where micro-level price behavior will determine if buyers can regain control or if deeper levels must be tested first. Market Correction Nears First Major Support Zone According to a recent update by More Crypto Online, SOL still maintains the chance to begin a larger upward move in this current cycle. The analyst notes that the market has been in a correction since mid-September and has now reached its first major structural support zone, putting the asset at a crucial juncture.

However, More Crypto Online cautions that there is currently not enough evidence that support is being confirmed here. While there is a small green candle on the weekly chart, this is merely something to watch and is “not yet a signal.” More Crypto Online outlines the bearish contingency: if Solana breaks sustainably below the $117–$118 area, the focus will shift to a deeper correction scenario, targeting the next major macro support zone between $90 and $62. In the weekly chart, these are the two zones that matter most on the macro level. However, More Crypto Online emphasizes that traders cannot automatically assume one or the other will hold. Meanwhile, the key is always to observe how the microstructure behaves inside these zones. Why Micro-Timeframe Structure Is the Decisive Factor The analyst further clarified that a weekly support zone only becomes meaningful when lower time frames begin to form clear 5-wave impulse structures from the lows. These impulses act as early confirmation that buyers are stepping in with strength rather than producing temporary reactions.

Without these smaller-time-frame impulses, any bounce that appears within a weekly support zone remains unconfirmed. It simply signals that price is reacting to the area, not that a true bottom has formed or that a bullish reversal is underway. To distinguish between a weak bounce and a confirmed hold, the analyst emphasized tracking micro price action on the 15-minute, 1-hour, and 4-hour charts. These lower time frames reveal whether buyers are defending levels with conviction. Until Solana prints a clean and structured 5-wave move from a low, neither support zone can be considered validated. In the meantime, both the higher and lower support scenarios remain fully in play.
