Technically, SOL’s uptrend appears intact. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 54.71, signaling bullish momentum with room to run before entering overbought levels. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is also showing positive signs, with the MACD line nearing a bullish crossover above the signal line.
The ongoing Solana (SOL) price rally comes amid growing optimism surrounding the launch of a Solana exchange-traded fund (ETF). Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas recently raised the odds of a Solana ETF approval to 100%, citing new generic listing standards adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These streamlined regulations have removed many of the traditional barriers that delay ETF approvals.
First SOL ETF deadline comes up Oct 10
Eight asset managers, including Franklin Templeton, VanEck, and 21Shares, have filed for a SOL ETF with several issuers already submitting revised filings in alignment with the SEC’s new guidelines. The first deadline is Oct 10 for Grayscale’s SOL ETF, while most others are set for Oct 16. If approved, the listing could inject fresh capital and propel Solana price to new highs.
For the rally to continue, buyers will need to overcome immediate resistance at $230, the upper boundary of Solana’s recent trading range. A successful breakout could lead to a climb toward the $240–$245 region, aligning with September’s peak levels.
On the downside, the $220 zone now acts as the first line of support, with stronger demand expected near $210 if profit-taking intensifies. While momentum is clearly building, much of the rally hinges on a SOL ETF approval and sustained market interest.
