There is a 250% APY range sitting inside the SOL/USDC pool on Orca right now. It is narrow — less than 6% wide — and it will kick you out the moment SOL makes a meaningful move. Most LPs ignore it because it feels too fragile. The strategy here is to stop ignoring it, and instead build a system around it.
We have written before about how our effectively non-concentrated, full-range Uniswap v4 positions keep doing their job in the background. That is still true.
Meanwhile, some of our concentrated SOL/USDC positions have been priced out by the recent move lower. Could we rebalance them? Yes. But right now that would mean adjusting into weakness and likely locking in a loss just to get active again. So for the moment, we are waiting.
The contrast is worth highlighting: while the SOL/USDC ranges are idle, these two small Uniswap v4 positions on Ethereum are still earning.
One of the most common questions we get from liquidity providers is: "What price range should I use for my SOL/USDC concentrated liquidity position?"
The answer isn't simple-it depends on your risk tolerance, time horizon, and market outlook. But by analyzing historical price action, technical levels, and practical LP strategies, we can identify ranges that work for different types of liquidity providers.
