Solana Price Stuck at $77 Resistance: Momentum Dead Flat
Solana's price has been stuck at $77 resistance for an extended period, with its MACD histogram printing zero and taker sell flow firmly in control.
The technical picture is unambiguous: a complete stall of momentum precisely as price approaches its highest point of the recent range. The Stochastic oscillator is overbought, and the Bollinger %B reading confirms that price is hugging the upper band at $77.27.
Despite a short-term moving average structure that looks tidy on the surface, the 200-day SMA at $82.58 remains the structural ceiling capping every meaningful rally attempt.
The derivatives data shows both retail and top traders skewed heavily to the long side, but this is seen as a warning sign rather than a catalyst for a breakout. Positions are being quietly reduced, not added, with open interest contracted 1.2% in the past 24 hours.
