Timeframe: H1 (context from Daily) Price at time of analysis: 102.98 Date: Sep 11, 2026

1. The Bigger Picture (Daily)
$SOL just went through a strong rally from around 65 to a high of 110.67, gaining over 60% in just a few weeks. After that hot move, price entered a corrective phase, ranging between 97 - 108. This is still a correction within a larger uptrend — the higher-timeframe bullish structure hasn't been broken.
2. The H1 Story — From Bearish FVG to IFVG
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) formed in the 102.77 - 104.84 zone during the down-move (Sep 8-10). Since it was created by a bearish leg, this was originally a bearish FVG — its original role was resistance.
What happened next:
Continuation lower: Price kept dropping down to the 98 low, consistent with the FVG's original resistance role. Violation & Inversion: From the 98 low, a powerful reversal candle broke upward and closed well through the FVG zone, reaching up to the 105.77 high. This violation invalidated the original bearish FVG and flipped it into an IFVG (Inversion Fair Value Gap) — shifting its role from resistance to support. Retesting the IFVG (current): Price pulled back and is now trading around 102.98, sitting right at the upper edge of the IFVG zone (102.77 - 102.76) — this is the first retest of this zone in its new support role.
Worth noting: an IFVG is often considered a more reliable reaction zone than an untested FVG, since it has already proven a genuine shift in order flow at that exact price level.
3. Technical Scenarios
Bullish scenario (if the IFVG holds as support): If price doesn't close below 102.76, the IFVG is confirmed to be holding its new support role after the inversion. Next target is a retest of 104.84, opening the path toward the strong resistance zone at 107.02 - 107.04.
Bearish scenario (if the IFVG fails): If there's a clear close below 102.76, the IFVG effectively loses its support value (gets "re-invalidated"). Price would likely sweep down to 100.75, and deeper toward 98.30 then 97.35.
4. Key Levels to Watch
Price Zone Role 107.02 - 107.04 Target resistance if breakout succeeds 104.84 Nearby resistance, first confirmation level 102.77 - 102.76 Decision zone — IFVG support currently being tested 101.92 Nearby invalidation level 100.75 Deeper support if the IFVG fails 98.30 / 97.35 Final support levels in the bearish scenario
5. Risk Management Perspective
Price is currently sitting right at the most sensitive point of the setup — just above the IFVG edge, without a clear confirmation candle yet (no strong bounce with a firm close). In this type of retest setup, the best risk/reward usually goes to those who wait for confirmation (a candle closing firmly above the zone, or a reversal pattern) rather than entering the moment price touches the zone.
If trading this scenario, placing a stop-loss below the IFVG zone (below 102.76, or more conservatively below 101.92) is a reasonable way to limit risk if the setup doesn't play out as expected.

Last week, I focused on understanding how the RSI indicator works and observing it across three timeframes: 5 minutes, 15 minutes, and 1 hour.
Understanding each part of that reading helped me train my eyes better and gradually develop a more orderly way of observing the charts.
I also noticed that the RSI 6 reacts faster to recent changes, while the RSI 14 moves in a more stable way. Neither is a complete answer on its own, but both can offer a different perspective on the movement.
