Trade Idea – Dual Bias Setup (Sept 30, 2025)
Hello traders in the house!
I want to share my analysis of Solana. I’ve been watching Solana (SOL/USDT) closely and wanted to share my current analysis using Smart Money Concepts (SMC). I want to put into practice what I have been reading, so let's go to the chart.
Timeframes Used:
- I use 1H for overall bias
- I use 15M for setup
- 3m for entry
1H Overview:
From a 1-hour timeframe, I use it for my overall trend to know if the market is going up or down. If price makes a higher high and a higher low, it's an uptrend, while a lower high and a lower low means it's a bearish or downtrend.
So from my analysis on 1H
- Structure is in an uptrend.
- There’s a clear Break of Structure (BOS) to the upside.
- Currently, price is retracing and tapping into a 1H Order Block.
- If you look down, there are 2 yellow zones. I marked my point of interest. Price reacts to the first Ob.
- There's liquidity present, and I mark it as xxx.
My expectation:
So the market is bullish, you have to look for a long set-up to join the trend, and vice versa. But there's what we also know as counter-trend. You're trading against the overall market trend.
But one thing I came to realize about this trading stuff is that nothing is certain. Everything is based on probability. But as a scalping I trade opportunity, jump in, jumping, small wins, small losses.
Price is currently on the first OB, but there's liquidity below the Order block or OB. So price is likely to clear the liquidity before continuing the trend.
The second down yellow zone is my new point of interest where I am expecting to find my entry. From the chart, there's an imbalance of FVG OB. If price comes to the last OB, that's where my entry will be, and my target will be the recent high.
My set-up.
Looking at the chart I got 2 trading opportunities at the moment.
- I got a short position
- I got a Long position.
But before I explain why let's switch from 1H to 15m-5m
Remember I said my setup is on 15m
15M & 5M Setup:
On the 15M, price has broken the last higher low that pushes the price upwards and this signals a trend change or CHOCH
On the 5M, price also gave a CHOCH, confirming weakness on the lower timeframe.
There is a green zone I marked and I called it a supply zone.
I am expecting the price to move up a bit, tap into the green zone, and reverse. As soon as the price tapped into the green zone, that's where I would find my short entry, then I would ride it to the last OB or demand zone.
My Trade Plan:
🟥 Short Setup
- If the price comes to the green zone I will confirm if my confluence is present
- choch
- Bos
If my confluence plays out, I will enter on a 3m timeframe and my stop loss above. My target will be the demand zone.
🟦 Long Setup
- The long setup needs patience because I have to wait for the price to reach the yellow demand zone.
- If price reacts to my poi, I will look for CHOCH on 3M
- I will enter a long position, stop loss below, and target the last high.
- Nothing is certain but I learn to trade only on confirmation.
Conclusion:
This is a dual-bias setup. I’ll take whichever side the market confirms first — but I won’t enter without my three confirmations:
Liquidity sweep + CHOCH + OB.
Let's see who comes first and how it will play out.
Let me know what you think!
