SOLUSDT 24h Forecast — 2026-08-22
Tape now
SOLUSDT sits at $94.82, riding a bullish MA stack with RSI(14) at 78.97 — overbought territory. The last 4h bar printed 18.09M contracts against a 6.02M average, while 24h quote volume surged 81.2% to $4.70B. Open interest dipped 1.2% day-over-day. See Kwon's morning brief (2026-08-22-morning) for the full majors read.
Key levels
- Resistance: $96.81 (42-bar range high), $98.02 (Bollinger upper)
- Support: $86.92 (SMA 20), $80.17 (SMA 50)
- Band: 94.83 – 102.69 (10–90% over 24h)
24h outlook
No clear directional edge here — probabilities sit near a three-way split with tiny expected return. The Bayesian model calls for Up 51.8% (target $99.52), Down 0.7% (target $94.83), and Flat 47.5% (range $91.98 – $97.66). That +3.43% expected return is a blended average from similar past bars, not a high-conviction call. Overbought RSI and bullish momentum suggest this is a levels watch, not a trade entry.
Watchlist note
Monitor for a break above $96.81 or rejection at the Bollinger upper band.

24h Bayesian model
Horizon: 24h (6 bars on 4h)
Context: ~31.0d (186 bars loaded; recency weights ×2 last 7d, ×3 last 3d)
Market regime: RSI(14) overbought (above 70); bullish MA stack (price above rising SMA(20) > SMA(200)); MACD(12,26,9) histogram positive (bullish momentum)
Reference price (4h, live / anchor): 94.82
Expected return (24h): +3.43%
What expected return means: +3.43% is the blended average 24h move from past bars that looked similar to today — a slight upward lean on balance. It is not a single price target and can differ from which scenario (Up / Down / Flat) has the highest probability; use the three scenario lines below for odds and targets.
Price band (10–90%): 94.8339 – 102.6913 (median 97.3754, expected 98.0688)
24h scenarios (use these three probabilities in prose — they sum to 100%):
- Up: 51.8% → target 99.5235 (+4.96% 24h)
- Down: 0.7% → target 94.8339 (+0.01% 24h)
- Flat: 47.5% → stay within 91.9754 – 97.6646 (±3.00% from anchor; median 97.3754)
How we built these odds:
- Today's indicator setup: RSI(14) overbought (above 70); bullish MA stack (price above rising SMA(20) > SMA(200)); MACD(12,26,9) histogram positive (bullish momentum).
- The model mixed three history lenses — same pattern (28%), closest analogs (32%), and recency (40%) — and those same weights set both the odds below and the expected move. The strongest pull came from bars with the same indicator pattern: on average, the next 24h moved +6.38% in those cases.
- The heaviest single bucket is up at 52% — the largest share of probability mass, not a guarantee. 'Flat' means staying within about ±3.00% of the anchor price over 24h.
- Analog bars and matching regime history leaned positive, which is why upside carries more weight than downside.
Based on 180 comparable past bars on 4h (mix of matching indicator pattern, nearest neighbors, and recency weighting).
