Aptos (APT) drops 5% to $1.50 as volume rises above monthly average

fell 5% to $1.50 in the last 24 hours.

The token established lower highs and lower lows within a range of $0.1429, according to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis model.

The model showed that APT spiked to $1.64 on heavy volume before falling again. This created strong resistance at that level.

Volume reached 258% above the 24-hour moving average during the rejection. Selling pressure intensified below the $1.56 support zone, according to the model.

High trading activity reached 23% above the 30-day average, the model showed. This indicated genuine institutional interest rather than low-volume technical moves.

The APT drop came as the broader crypto markets also fell. The broader market gauge, the CoinDesk 20 index, was 2.1% lower at press time.

Technical analysis:
  • Strong resistance established at $1.64 level following rejection of volume spike
  • The increase in volume to 6.88 million confirmed 258% selling pressure above the 24-hour SMA.
  • Sustained volume above 6 million during breakout phases validated bearish structure
  • The lower highs and lower lows established the bearish structure.
  • Immediate resistance at $1.53 must be reclaimed to recover
  • A break below $1.515 support points to lower levels, while $1.64 remains a key bullish barrier
