⚠️ Solana price prediction 2026: Will Alpenglow spark a bullish SOL breakout in October?

🔔 Solana price has entered October near $121 after gaining 14.6% in September, leaving a break above 124–125 as the main technical condition for extending the recovery toward $148. The current move follows two strong months. Historical price data show SOL gained around 41.5% in August before rising another 14.6% in September. September opened near $103 and finished around $118, with the token reaching above $124 late in the month.

🔗 October has started with SOL recovering from the 117–119 area, but buyers have not yet cleared the late-September high. CoinGecko places the recent seven-day range between $116.44 and $124.27, keeping both levels relevant as traders assess the next move. The immediate resistance zone sits between roughly $124 and $125. SOL closed at $122.08 on Sept. 25 and later traded above $124 intraday before retreating toward $118 at the end of the month.

⚡️ Price has since recovered above $120, but a move through 124–125 has not been confirmed. A daily close above the resistance range, followed by support holding there, would strengthen the case for another leg higher. The $148 level comes from a separate technical setup shared by trader Daan Crypto Trades. His chart identified $117 as the level SOL needed to preserve before targeting $148. Since SOL has held above that region for now, the target remains technically possible, though the resistance around 124–125 must still be cleared first.
