Watch: the daily chart check
The daily candle
Solana closed the September 24 daily candle at $117.00, up 1.77% on the day, after trading between $112.42 and $117.72.
Moving averages
The close of $117.00 is 10.2% above the 20-day average ($106.19).
The close of $117.00 is 22.2% above the 50-day average ($95.75).
The close of $117.00 is 38.6% above the 200-day average ($84.42).
The 50-day average is above the 200-day average. A moving average is the mean of the last N daily closes; where the price sits against it describes the recent trend, not the next one.
Momentum: RSI and MACD
The 14-day RSI reads 65.4, between 30 and 70, neither extreme. RSI compares the size of recent up days with recent down days on a 0 to 100 scale.
MACD (12, 26, 9) is 5.512 against a signal line of 4.521, so the MACD line is above its signal. MACD measures the gap between a fast and a slow exponential average.
Volume and range
Volume on the day was 0.99 times its 20-day average. Volume counts how much traded; a move on heavy volume involved more of the market than one on light volume.
The Bollinger Bands (20 days, 2 standard deviations) run from $92.31 to $120.07, and the close is inside the bands.
Over the previous 30 days the highest close was $118.89 and the lowest $96.54.
