Aptos Price Prediction: Eight of every ten traders are trying to catch the knife

  • Aptos price auctions above $7 as the weekend produced a 15% sell-off.
  • Eight out of every ten retail traders are currency bullish on the APT price.
  • Invalidation of the bearish thesis is a breach above $7.50.

Aptos price witnessed a strong sell-off during November's first trading weekend. If market conditions persist, a continuation of the downtrend could occur throughout the week. Key levels have been identified to gain perspective on APT’s next potential move.

Aptos price is underwater  

Aptos price has experienced a strong downward trend over the weekend as the bears have produced a 15% loss in market value. On Monday November 11, 2022, APT price is consolidating near the lower edge of the liquidity zone, which is enticing bulls to open a long position. Still, on-chain metrics suggest trying to catch the falling knife could lead to a bloody loss.

Aptos price currently auctions at $7.03. The move south was catalyzed on Sunday November 6, as the 8-day exponential moving average failed to hold support near $7.50. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) displays the current sell-off as extremely oversold, which hints that the bears’ intentions are genuine.
