Bottom line: SOL currently looks more like a weak rebound after a sharp drop than the start of a new uptrend. The latest spot price is about $109.92, up just 0.41% over 24 hours. After the previous daily candle fell from a high of $120.71 to $109.13, the short-term rebound still needs to reclaim and hold the $110.90–$112.06 area before a trend recovery can be discussed. If the price falls below $108.45 again, the rebound thesis is invalidated, and the next level to watch for support is around $108.
1. Price structure: A 4-hour rebound, but key levels have yet to be reclaimed
According to Binance public data at around 09:00 Beijing time on October 10, 2026, the latest SOLUSDT spot price was about $109.92, with a 24-hour high of $112.06, a low of $108.45, and a 24-hour gain of about 0.41%. This is a very small gain, so an intraday move back above $110 should not be interpreted as a trend reversal.
The completed 4-hour candles show that SOL pulled back from around $115.86, reaching a low of $105.71. It then rebounded above $109, but the trading volumes of the latest two 4-hour candles were approximately $43.35 million and $29.58 million—well below the roughly $102 million and $125 million recorded during the preceding decline. Price is recovering, but volume has not returned to its pre-decline levels. This looks more like a weak recovery than a high-volume reversal.
In the short term, watch these three levels:
- $108.45: The low of the past 24 hours and the first support level bulls need to defend;
- Around $110.90: The high of the previous 4-hour rebound. A short-term improvement would require price to reclaim this level and hold above it at the close;
- $112.06: The high of the past 24 hours. Only a high-volume breakout that holds after the candle closes would warrant further discussion of a recovery toward the $115 area.
II. Leverage data: Open interest shows no clear chase higher, while the funding rate has only turned slightly positive
Current open interest in Binance USDⓈ-M SOLUSDT is approximately 8.5317 million SOL. In the publicly available 1-hour open-interest history, the notional open interest has fluctuated roughly between $939 million and $932 million. It is essentially unchanged from the start of the sample, so this does not indicate a large influx of new leveraged positions.
The current mark price is around $109.865, while the index price is around $109.918, leaving the mark price slightly below the index price. The displayed funding rate is about +0.0054% per interval, and the most recently settled rate was about +0.0079% per interval. The rate turning positive suggests that longs are somewhat more willing to pay, but the increase is still modest and is not a bullish signal on its own. If price rebounds while open interest rises sharply and the funding rate continues to heat up, yet price still fails to reclaim $112.06, watch for a pullback after longs become crowded.
III. What to watch next
Bullish scenario: The 4-hour candle closes back above $110.90, volume then expands noticeably compared with the latest candles, and price goes on to break above $112.06. Only if these conditions are met would the rebound qualify as a “structural improvement” rather than just a “price bounce.” The next level to watch above is the previous high-volume area near $115.
Neutral scenario: Price moves sideways between $108.45 and $112.06, with no significant changes in open interest or the funding rate. In this case, chasing the move offers an unremarkable risk-reward ratio; it is safer to wait for a candle close to confirm a breakout from the range.
Bearish scenario: A 4-hour candle closes back below $108.45, with volume increasing during the decline. That would mean the rebound has failed. First, watch whether the area around $108 can provide support; if support continues to weaken, do not rush to buy the dip solely because the funding rate has turned positive.
The above is a market overview based on publicly available Binance data and does not constitute investment advice. Spot and perpetual futures differ in price, funding rates, and how open interest is measured. Leveraged trading also involves liquidation risk, slippage, and funding costs.
