However, with the sentiment changes and the breakout of this level, his breakout, there is now a strong possibility that SOL could soar significantly and reach its all-time high of $259.90 in the coming days. Currently, the asset is trading above 200 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on a daily time frame, indicating an uptrend. 

In addition to this breakout, SOL’s upward rally could gain further momentum if it closes a daily candle above the $205 level, unless it may take longer to reach its all-time high.
