Solana Price Alert: Rare Pattern Signals Potential Surge to $240—Time to Buy?

Solana's chart just flashed a rare bullish pattern—and traders are betting it could catapult SOL to $240. Here's why the smart money's watching.

The breakout setup resembles historical rallies that delivered triple-digit gains. But with crypto, even 'sure things' love to fake out retail investors.

Key levels to watch: A clean hold above $180 could confirm the uptrend. Below $150? The pattern fails—along with overleveraged moonboys' portfolios.

Wall Street's latest 'crypto expert' will inevitably call this technical analysis. We call it gambling with better charts.

SOL forms a golden cross

SOL has formed a golden cross on the daily chart. The pattern usually forms when the 50-day simple moving average crosses above the 200-day one, and it is typically viewed as a bullish signal within the crypto trading community.

Will Solana price hit $240 as rare pattern emerges? - 1

SOL price formed a golden cross and a cup and handle on the daily chart — Aug. 12 | Source: crypto.news

A similar pattern was spotted last year in October. At the time, SOL rallied nearly 50% in the next three months. 

This time around, if the price follows the historical trend, SOL may embark on a similar rally, which could push its price as high as $240.

On top of the previous setup, SOL has also printed a cup-and-handle pattern, with its base at $126.4 and neckline resistance around $187.74.

The distance between the cup’s upper and lower bounds is roughly 48%. Projecting the same MOVE from the upper boundary, SOL eyes a potential rally toward $248, slightly exceeding the target set by the golden cross above.

When a golden cross and a cup-and-handle pattern both appear, it’s essentially two bullish technical signals aligning, which traders often interpret as a high-probability continuation setup for an uptrend.

However, this bullish outlook WOULD be invalidated if the price falls below the closest support area ,which is around $156. This level marks the lower end of the handle.
