As its price retests a key horizontal level, some analysts warn of a potential 50% correction to a yearly low.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400\">Solana Loses Key Support Level<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Solana has been one of the leading cryptocurrencies of the cycle, fueled by the market\u2019s memecoin frenzy. The altcoin climbed over 270% in a year to its latest all-time high (ATH) of $270, registered nearly two months ago.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Nonetheless, SOL\u2019s bullish sentiment has significantly decreased since January, recently plummeting to its lowest point in over a year. As a result, the cryptocurrency has dropped over 50% from its January 19 ATH.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Solana lost the key $200-$220 support zone at the start of last month, with the February market crashes sending SOL to retest its next crucial levels. After losing the $180 mark two weeks ago, its price hovered between the $130-$150 range, surging to the $179 mark at the start of March.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">This week\u2019s market correction, which saw Bitcoin (BTC) drop to $76,000 for the first time in four months, has sent Solana to new monthly lows.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">On Tuesday, SOL\u2019s price briefly dropped to $111, a level not seen since the August 2024 market crash, before bouncing back to $125. Amid the ongoing retest, pseudonym trader Crypto Busy <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoBusy\/status\/1899862358463259076\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">warned<\/a> that SOL must \u201chold this crucial support to maintain a bullish sentiment above $100.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Crypto analyst Ali Martinez previously <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ali_charts\/status\/1898813790151483782\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">noted<\/a> that the most crucial zone for Solana appears to be between $110 and $125, as this horizontal level served as a key support during its 2021 and 2024 rallies. The analyst suggested that \u201cholding above this range could be key for the next move.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400\">SOL Price Risks Move To $60<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Martinez also pointed out that Solana could be on the verge of a breakdown, as it has broken below its key level. According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ali_charts\/status\/1899522711115718994\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">post<\/a>, SOL risks a 50% crash to the $60 mark if it fails to hold the $125 support zone.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The analyst highlighted that the cryptocurrency has been forming a right angle ascending broadening pattern since March 2024, when it first reclaimed the level during this cycle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">During this period, every higher high on Solana\u2019s chart has created a rising trendline at the top of the pattern, while the $125 support has held \u201cas a strong horizontal support trendline.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, SOL\u2019s break below this horizontal zone has increased the odds of a 50% price correction to the Q4 2023 levels. Additionally, Martinez recently warned of a potential correction based on Solana\u2019s trading pair against Bitcoin, which started to resemble ETH\/BTC\u2019s chart.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The analyst suggested that the SOL\/BTC chart was looking like Ethereum\u2019s trading pair against BTC\u2019s past price action, adding that if it continued to follow this pattern, the SOL\/BTC chart could see a drop to the 0.0008 region. After the recent price action, the trading pair hit a 15-month low of 0.0014624 on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">As of this writing, Solana trades at $124, a 14% decline in the weekly timeframe.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-711330\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/SOLUSDT_2025-03-12_13-18-23.png?w=860&#038;resize=860%2C462\" alt=\"Solana, sol, solusdt\" width=\"860\" height=\"462\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solana (SOL) has seen a nearly 40% retrace over the past month, losing key support levels since February.
