cryptokoin.comAs you follow from , in the previous unlock event on September 12, the tokens went to the foundation and the community. That’s why the altcoin saw significant price fluctuations in the two weeks after the event. In particular, it is possible that community members would prefer to make a quick profit, even if the foundation is not willing to sell. However, ahead of the event, Aptos price may drop similar to the previous event where the APT value dropped 15% before increasing by 7% before and after the event respectively. This drop occurred as token holders rushed to avoid being caught as part of the exit liquidity.
Therefore, the Aptos price is likely to start falling this week. Thus, it is possible for the altcoin price to potentially reach the $4.95 support base. Such a move would mean a decline of 5% below current levels. Currently, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates this effect. It is also shifting below the 50 mid-line with an overall bearish trend. A breakout and a close below $4.95 could start a new downtrend towards the $4.89 low range.
