SOL has recently dropped quite sharply, and many people are worried about where the bottom is. Interestingly, at this critical juncture, a large capital move has attracted attention— a mysterious whale account just spent $5 million to buy 41,000 SOL tokens, with the price stuck around the $120 mark. What does this imply?
**Whale Logic**
Players of this level are usually not blindly buying in. Historical records show that this whale has previously executed many profitable low-buy high-sell operations. Now, with a large purchase again, it at least indicates that they believe SOL has entered an undervalued zone at the current level. Big funds daring to buy suggest that the downward space might not be as large as feared. But a reminder— whale buying does not mean an immediate rally; they may still continue accumulating, so retail investors should not get overly excited and go all-in.
**Market View**
From the 1-hour K-line chart, SOL is currently around 122, with buy orders clearly outweighing sell orders. The MACD has just formed a bullish crossover, signaling a short-term rebound. However, the overall trend has not yet turned upward. The range of 125-130 above is a clear resistance zone. If a rebound occurs but volume cannot keep up, it’s likely to turn downward again. Support levels below are first at 121; if broken, it indicates the small rebound may be over, and a second bottom at 115 or even lower to 105 could follow.
**Two Trading Strategies**
Aggressive: If the price rebounds to the 125-130 range, try a small short position with a stop-loss above 132; if it drops directly, start gradually building long positions. The key is to keep positions small and add gradually—don’t go all-in at once. Conservative: Honestly, whale operations are their own business; copying them blindly is like catching a falling knife. The safest approach is to set price alerts and wait until it breaks above 125 before reassessing.

What does it mean when a Whale catches a falling knife? It actually means that there are still people brave enough to buy the dip, and that is the real signal.

With this move, the whales show they're not fools, but if we copy along, we'll really be fools.

Whales eating up the chips, retail investors should not follow the trend. This time, you really need to be patient and wait.

Whales bought in with 50 million, do we retail investors have to follow suit and go all-in? That logic doesn’t hold up with me.
---
It’s always whales and MACD, after talking for so long, you still need to watch the charts yourself to be truly in control.
---
Copying whale moves really makes it easy to buy at the middle of the mountain, I agree with that, but don’t be too self-deprecating either.
---
Buying SOL at over 120 bucks? I feel like that’s just the beginning, it might even drop further.
---
The idea of small positions and buying in batches is always the same, and then what? Most people still go all-in in one shot.
---
What’s interesting is that when whales eat up the chips, retail investors are cutting losses, the gap is really quite dramatic.
---
That resistance level at 125-130 doesn’t look very stable to me, the volume and momentum are really not enough to break through.
---
Set a reminder to wait for a breakout? I’ve become numb waiting, it might just stay sideways forever.
---
Honestly, I’m more curious about who this whale really is. Such precise moves, unless it’s a big institution, it must be insider trading, right?
---
If SOL keeps falling like this, the true bottom is still a long way off, don’t be fooled by this rebound.

Can a whale drop 5 million to prove the bottom? I don't think so. This guy might just be waiting to ambush retail investors into buying in.

I've seen too many of these whale eating chips plays, I'm just worried retail investors follow the trend and buy in
