SOL

What the call was based on

SOL still favors a swing long because the move is backed by real participation: price rose 3.3% while open interest added 0.7%, and daily volume ran 348.7% above its 20-day average. That gives it a better chance to diverge from BTC's earlier short context, but I would rather buy a pullback into 90.2-92.4 than chase straight into 94.99 resistance. A break below 87.2 would lose the EMA200 and upper-band support cluster, while crowded retail longs and the risk-off backdrop keep conviction moderate.

• Price +3.3%, OI +0.7%: real bid despite BTC short
• Vol 348.7% avg; RSI 83, MACD hist 1.8503
• EMA200 89.1, upper BB 87.7: support cluster
• 94.99 caps; close 93.72 stayed below
• Retail L/S 2.19; BTC dom 58.84% still hostile to alts

Bitcoin market regime at the time: side.
