【The easiest mistake for retail traders to make: treating “a big drop” as “the bottom is in”】

SOL is down 69% from its ATH, and many people mistake “a big drop” for “the bottom is in.” But it’s still down 6.4% over the past 7 days, and the Fear & Greed Index is just 25, with a weekly average of 33. Being oversold doesn’t mean selling pressure is over. I fell into this trap back in 2017.

On the daily chart, highs and lows are still moving lower; the weak structure hasn’t turned around. On the 4H chart, keep an eye on the 90 level near 89.8. If it breaks below, price will keep looking for the previous low. Only reclaiming 90 and forming a higher low would count as a recovery. On the 1H chart, lows haven’t moved higher, so breakouts are easily false moves. Volume is active, but watch which breakout it follows.

As things develop, bulls care about whether 90 can be reclaimed and whether SOL can recover the roughly 96 it lost this week; bears care about whether the previous low will be taken out on heavy volume. Holding above 90 on the 4H chart would invalidate the bearish view; breaking below the previous low on heavy volume would mean weakness continues.

In practical terms, Leap’s iPhone beta brings tokenized stocks, ETFs, metals, forex, and crypto assets to SOL, affecting developers, liquidity providers, and asset issuers alike. The idea may work, but a beta isn’t revenue. Success depends on liquidity, compliance, custody, and user experience. The Shanghai rollout was halted, putting domestic marketing teams under pressure first. No matter how strong the technology is, it can’t bypass compliance.

I lean toward the downtrend continuing for now, and would treat any rebound as a recovery attempt. Are you spooked by the fear reading of 25, or already itching to buy the dip? #SOL #加密市场 #REBOOT #MarketFeel
