Is Solana’s bullish flag a hint of what is to come?
SOL price pulled back after reaching a 20-month high of $122 on Dec. 25 as sellers booked profits and the wider crypto market corrected.
Despite the correction, a bull flag can be seen on the daily chart, which hints at the continuation of the uptrend.
Bulls have pushed the price above the resistance from the flag’s upper boundary at $98, signaling a possible breakout from the chart formation. This projected an uptick to the technical target of the governing chart pattern at $148. Such a move would represent a 49% ascent from the current price.

The 50-day exponential moving average (EMA), 100-day EMA, 200-day EMA and the relative strength index (RSI) were all facing upward, suggesting that the market conditions still favored the upside. The price strength at 54 indicated that the bulls still dominated the market.
On the other hand, the bears may pull the price lower with the 50-day EMA at $87 providing the first line of defense. Additional support lines could emerge from the flag’s lower limit of $80, the $73 major support level and the support zone between $70 and $53, where the 100-day and 200-day EMAs lie.
