For me this chart is quite simple with two options, a bullish and bearish scenario. SOL is currently rangebound but the massive momentum in the broader market has opened the door to a potential breakout of this trading environment.
To look at the context of the chart we has a clear push from the midpoint up to range high, very little in the way of pullbacks until price breaks up above the old local high. We know that generally stop losses hide behind a key high or low and so price trading into it with such momentum is something to note when entering a trade at this level.
Liquidations for SOL are currently 50:50 long and short and so this balance shows no clear liquidation event in one particular way, at least not yet.
Bullish scenario -
SOL continues the rally above the range, strong volume to confirm that price is ready to expand beyond the area that failed in the past. A retest of $206 with a strong bounce gives this move a higher probability and proof buyers are still willing to buy at the level. Idea is invalid should price accept back below the range high, signifying buyers are not ready to sustain rally continuation.
Bearish scenario -
Price accepts below range high and shows that buyers are not willing to expend beyond the range. Naturally a retreat would then follow as the bears defend the same point that they successfully defended in the past (range high). Any price action that resembles chop within the red box would be a non action area as there is an area of balance giving no clear clue of direction either way.

Note
Big rejection off the range high SFP. Strong recovery bounce but many late Long positions just got wiped out. Will the wick get back filled or was that the only chance at a pullback we'll get?
Note
Confirmation of the flash crash wick being back filled. Midpoint fast approaching!
Trade closed: target reached
Midpoint tagged, SFP complete.I'm going to see what the Monday range looks like before re-entering a position.
Note
Lots of noise around the midpoint, no clear direction as yet.$190 is a key level to look out for.
Note
Another SFP of the range high and looking at a resets of the midpoint once again.With BTC selling off it looks like altcoins will be dragged down too should this continue.
