SOL: 102.50 breakout and retest | 18 September 2026
Get this chart
Solana is recovering from the 96โ97 USDT zone, but the recovery has not yet surpassed the nearby resistance. This is a conditional long-entry setup, not an immediate buy signal.
Chart structure
On the Binance chart for the SOLUSDT pair over the last 4 hours, the price is about 101.10 USDT as of 17 September 2026 at 20:53 Central European Time (18:53 UTC). The current candle is still open. The late-August surge reached its peak near 109โ110, followed by lower swing highs around 106โ107 and 103โ104. Therefore, this most recent bounce is still a recovery against that decline/correction.
The 102โ103 zone may have acted as a repeatedly interacted area. If a 4-hour close above 102.50 is followed by a successful retest, it would support a recovery attempt toward the previous supply zones. That alone will not prove the broader correction has ended.
Trading plan โ September 18, 2026
โข Trigger: A 4-hour candle close above 102.50 USDT.
โข Confirmation: After that candle close, the price retests 102.00โ102.50 and closes a 15-minute candle again fully above 102.50.
โข Sample entry: 102.50; max entry limit 102.75. If the price rushes away without a retest, skip the trade.
โข Stop loss: 99.50 USDT. After entry, this is a price-based stop lossโnot the condition โwait for 4 hours to close.โ Before entry, a break below 99.50 cancels this setup.
โข Target 1: 106.00 USDT, near the supply zone from the previous September.
โข Target 2: 109.00 USDT, near the swing high zone in late August.
At a sample entry at 102.50, the price risk is 3.00 USDT per SOL. Target 1 offers about 1.2R and Target 2 about 2.2R before fees and price slippage. A higher fill reduces both ratios. The 104 area is an intermediate hurdle: reaching either target is not guaranteed. Taking part of the profits at Target 1 is one possible approach; moving the remaining stop loss to the entry price may lead to an early exit on a normal pullback.
Invalidation and timing
No confirmed breakout and retestโno trade. Just a short wick (w/i/k) above 102.50 is not enough. All trigger and entry conditions must occur on September 18, 2026, between 00:00 and 23:59 UTC. If not, the entry plan expires. The targets may take more than a day; this is not a promise of a same-day move.
