The head and shoulders pattern on Solana’s daily chart sets a $70 target for $SOL, but the current market-wide sell-off could see prices slip even further.
At the center of the ongoing crypto market decline is the U.S. Federal Reserve'sto unwind its $120 billion a month asset purchasing program followed by three or more interest rate hikes spread throughout 2022.
The central bank's loose monetary policies had assisted in pumping the crypto market's valuation from $128 billion since March 2020 to as high as $3 trillion in Nov. 2021. Therefore, the evidence of tapering has been influencing investors to limit their exposure in over-pumped markets, including Solana, which had gained nearly 12,500% since March 2020.
As a result, if the crypto market continues declining in the sessions ahead, SOL will also be at risk of validating its head and shoulders setup.While SOL's longer timeframe chart leans toward a prolonged bearish setup, its short-term outlook looks comparatively bullish.SOL/USD daily price chart.

That is primarily due to two factors. First, SOL price has fallen to a critical support level of $116 that was instrumental in limiting its downside attempts in September 2021. And second, its daily relative strength index dropped to below 30 — a classic buy signal.
