A bullish pennant pattern in crypto trading is a technical analysis indicator formed when the price of an asset experiences a sharp upward movement followed by a consolidation period, during which the price trades within converging trend lines, resembling a pennant shape.

This pattern typically suggests that there is a temporary pause in the uptrend and that the price is likely to continue in the same direction once the consolidation phase is completed. Traders often see this pattern as a potential continuation signal, indicating that the bullish trend may resume.

Meanwhile, data shows that Solana outperformed both Bitcoin and Ethereum in weekly blockchain trading revenue from non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

Solana Price Prediction

To the naked eye, the Solana price is trading with a bearish bias, having recorded a series of lower highs. However, a trained eye will see that this price action has formed a bullish pennant pattern with key factors supporting a further upside.

To start with, it has overcome resistance due to the 50% Fibonacci placeholder of $163.92 and is testing the upper boundary of the pennant. Overcoming this barrier could activate the bullish governing pattern, setting the tone for further upside.

Secondly, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), an indicator measuring momentum, has breached its mean level of 50. Its higher lowers and overall northbound inclination suggest that the momentum is rising, which sends the Solana to price further north.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) accentuates the bullish thesis, as it holds well above the signal line (orange band). Its green histograms show prevailing bullish sentiment, with the Solana price likely to extend the climb.

Based on the Fibonacci retracement indicator, a further upside could send the Solana price to $174.53 or higher to test the $187.66 threshold. If the target objective of the bullish pennant is achieved, however, determined by measuring the longest distance between the trendlines, the Solana price could rally 77% north, breaching the $208.89 peak.

Converse Case

On the flip side, a rejection from the upper trendline of the channel could see the Solana price drop to test the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level. If this level holds as support, it could provide a jumping-off base for a further upside, potentially activating the bullish pennant with a breakout.

However, if the aforementioned level breaks, the Solana price could extend the fall to the 71.8% Fibonacci retracement level of $138.20. A break and close below the lower trendline of the pattern would invalidate the bullish thesis.

Even as the Solana price teases with a bullish chart pattern, investors are channeling funds into Base Dawgz (DAWGZ), a new Base meme coin that Crypto YouTuber ClayBro says could “create millionaires.”

Promising Alternative To Solana

DAWGZ is the native cryptocurrency for the Base Dawgz ecosystem, which aims to appeal to investors’ adventurous spirits.

It features a base-jumping Shiba Inu and characters such as Wojak and Doge-based memes all strapped with base-jumping gear and soaring through the skies after jumping out of a plane.

Base Dawgz considers Base its home but it can be stored and extracted through other blockchains. The multi-chain functionality is provided by Wormhole and Portal Bridge technology. Wormhole is a message-passing protocol, while Portal is a blockchain bridging system.

DAWGZ

Base Dawgz thus brings a multi-chain experience and $DAWGZ will also trade on ETH, SOL, BSC, and AVAX. This chain-hopping ability makes it a real gripper, as you can claim, store, and trade it seamlessly on Ethereum, Solana, BSC, and Avalanche.

It is like a base jump through the blockchains, landing wherever you choose.

Base Dawgz has also implemented a unique competition-based crypto airdrop model. This feature rewards creative social engagement with $DAWGZ tokens.

Presale investors accumulate points by posting on Base Dawgz’s social media accounts. Users with the highest points win the most tokens airdropped to them.
