NEAR Sunrise Launch: Solana Access Sends NEAR Up 14%, and My Long Got Stopped Anyway

NEAR is now live on Solana. On October 15, Near Protocol and Sunrise switched on a route that puts NEAR liquidity straight into Solana wallets, Jupiter, Raydium and the aggregators. The token jumped about 14% on the news and traded between $5.24 and $5.30. It has more than doubled in 30 days. My own NEAR long from Monday hit TP1, TP2 and TP3 on the way up. Then the remaining size round-tripped on Wednesday’s CPI dip and got stopped at entry. A solid trade that could have been a lot better if I’d closed the runner at the top.
