Solana (SOL) is in cruise mode as it heads towards what could be the last two barriers before getting back to its all-time high of $295. Will the $SOL bulls push it over these obstacles? How is $SOL performing against $ETH and $BTC?

$SOL hits first of the big obstacles

The daily chart for $SOL shows how the price has been traversing up inside a wedge pattern since early April of this year. That was the local bottom of just under $100, and from there it has been a nice gradual ascent.

Today the price is up against the $219 resistance, while only just above this is the top of the wedge. This is the first combined obstacle that the bulls must overcome. If there is a rejection from here, the major support level at $202 isn’t that far below, and would potentially enable a reset of the momentum indicators.

$252 major resistance is second big obstacle

The weekly chart puts things more into perspective for the $SOL price . The 50-week SMA (blue line) served as major support for $SOL from the start of the huge ascension in October 2023 through to the all-time high early in 2025. After that, the price crashed down through the 50-week SMA but has now gained above it once again.

The second of the two obstacles that are left for $SOL is the big resistance at $252. This level has rejected three major rallies so far, and so the $SOL bulls will be hoping fourth time lucky.

$SOL now turning the tables on $ETH

Against its $ETH pair (SOL/ETH) $SOL is now starting to turn the tables. A beautiful touch of the 0.618 Fibonacci marked the spot where $SOL began to take control again. A descending wedge that led out of the ascending channel has now been broken to the upside, and with momentum definitely on the side of $SOL now, it might be expected that the price at least regains the bottom trendline of the channel.

For the SOL/BTC pair it can be seen that the $SOL bulls are also attempting to gain the upper hand. So far this week $SOL is managing to drive up from the huge 0.0019 BTC horizontal resistance, and looks as though it will flip this into support.

The W pattern, which was drawn on this chart near the bottom, is continuing to play out, although the approaching descending trendline will be the battle royale for SOL/BTC. If $SOL can penetrate above this, the next target would be the resistance at 0.00294 BTC, with a higher high slightly above this.

After the CPI was released, the market-implied rate hike probability first rose to 50% before falling back to 40%. Wall Street generally believes that whether action will be taken in October still depends on how the Federal Reserve assesses inflation trends. "The New Fed News Agency" noted that, unlike in August when price increases were concentrated in certain items, the stronger-than-expected performance of September's core CPI was more broad-based, further reinforcing the case for a December rate hike. The speech by Waller on Friday morning Beijing time is his last public statement before the Fed's blackout period ahead of this month's meeting. Economists are warning about an "inflation spiral," with real purchasing power and midterm election pressures interweaving.
