Can these announcements breathe new life into APT?

Aptos’ native cryptocurrency APT struggled to find directional performance this week after its rally last week. This suggests that the bulls ran out of momentum. Meanwhile, the bears have been pushing to take over. APT tanked by 6.8% to its $12.20 press time price.

There are other reasons for investors to expect sell pressure to prevail. For example, APT’s RSI attempted to push below the 50% level. The price also encountered resistance above the $13.7 price range and it has been struggling to rally above its 50-day moving average.

Numerous Aptos metrics show a higher potential for a pivot. For example, APT’s price volatility has been declining and is currently at a weekly low. In addition, the price experienced a sizable drop in volume between 23 – 24 March, confirmation that the bulls were losing strength.

APT’s weighted sentiment dropped slightly in the last 24 hours at press time, confirming that some investors were losing faith in the bulls. However, its press time level was notably higher than its weekly low on 20 March.

Aptos’ social dominance metric had its highest weekly spike in the last 24 hours. This was an important observation, as it may indicate that APT investors were aware of the bulls’ sluggishness.

They may thus act in accordance with the current observations, potentially contributing to more sell pressure. Of course, this will depend on the overall market direction, which may regain its upside unexpectedly.
