Solana’s (SOL) recovery has been in line with most altcoins in the market that rallied after Bitcoin’s revival from $37,700. While the sellers initiated a sell-off from the $136-mark, SOL saw an up-channel breakout.

Also, the Aroon up (yellow) still looked south towards the zero-mark. On its way down, it could propel further pullbacks on the price chart.
