Solana's cup-and-handle pattern hints at a potential 2000% price rally.
Analysts see a bullish trend if SOL breaks the $205 resistance level.
Bitcoin halving could drive renewed altcoin interest, boosting Solana's growth prospects.
After dropping to around $10 in November 2022, Solana (SOL) has managed to surge over 2,000%. Now, analyst Peter Brandt predicts even more explosive growth as the weekly chart prints a classic cup-and-handle setup, signaling a bullish trend. With the emergence of this chart pattern, SOL might rise to $4,500, according to experts.
What Is the Cup-and-Handle Pattern?
A cup-and-handle pattern appears when the price dips and recovers, forming a U-shape. This U-shape resembles a cup. After the recovery, the price moves sideways for a while, creating a handle. The handle typically reflects a period of indecision as traders wait to see the next big move.
For months, Solana's price has hovered between $100 and $200, showing this exact behavior. In technical terms, a breakout happens when the price surpasses a key resistance line, known as the neckline. For Solana, this resistance sits at $205.

Once the price crosses this line, a surge often follows, matching the distance between the cup's lowest point and the neckline. However, while this setup looks promising, nothing is guaranteed. Thomas Bulkowski, an analyst, studied hundreds of cup-and-handle patterns. His research found only 61% of these setups reached their targets.

Historically, the altcoin market rallies after Bitcoin halving events. During these periods, traders shift their focus from Bitcoin to altcoins, looking for higher returns. In 2020, the altcoin market boomed nearly 2,000% following Bitcoin's May halving. That same period saw Solana’s price skyrocket over 49,000%.
Traders tend to move to altcoins once Bitcoin’s growth slows. Smaller coins, like Solana, often promise larger returns, making them attractive during these bullish phases. Another Bitcoin halving will take place in 2024, stirring hopes for a new wave of altcoin enthusiasm.
Many believe this could drive Solana’s price to new heights. Both technical patterns and market trends suggest a bright future for Solana. Although the cup-and-handle pattern points to a 2,000% rise, traders must remember that the market remains unpredictable.
