Traders Deploy $150M Leverage as Bullish Momentum Returns
A key indicator of the growing bullish sentiment in Solana markets is the notable increase in long leverage positions by speculative traders this week.
According to Coinglass‘ Liquidation map data, the influx of long positions has significantly outnumbered short contracts in Solana futures markets. Bullish traders have deployed $151.09 million in long positions with the 20% boundaries of the current prices, while the total volume of short contracts stands at $110 million. This significant imbalance indicates that bullish traders are taking more aggressive positions, showing growing confidence in the potential for further price increases.
With Solana’s price currently at $165, a potential breakout towards $180 could be on the horizon. Conversely, should the market experience another downtrend, SOL price is likely to find substantial short-term support around the $155 level. The majority of the $150 million leverage contracts are listed between $164 and $154, highlighting the potential for significant demand within this range as bullish traders aim to avoid major liquidations.
