Aptos price is poised for a rally following a retest of the support level

Source Fxstreet
  • Aptos price bounces off the key support zone, eyeing a rally ahead.
  • On-chain data paints a bullish picture as APT’s long-to-short ratio is above one, and open interest is rising.
  • A daily candlestick close below $7.23 would invalidate the bullish thesis.

 

Aptos (APT) price extends its gains on Tuesday following last week's retest of its key support zone. On-chain data further support APT’s bullish outlook, as its open interest is rising and long-to-short ratio trades are above one, all hinting at a rally in the upcoming days.

 

Aptos bulls are ready for an upswing following a bounce from the support zone

Aptos price broke above the falling wedge pattern (formed by connecting multiple highs and lows with two trendlines) on September 21; a break above this pattern generally favors the bulls.

APT retested the breakout level on October 1, which coincides with the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $7.74 and the support zone between $7.35 and $7.76. This zone is a key support level, and it rallied 20%. As of Tuesday, it continues to trade above around $9.02.

If the $7.35 and $7.76 support zone holds, APT could rally 14% from its current trading level to retest its daily resistance level of $10.26.

If the bulls are aggressive, the overall crypto market outlook is positive, and APT closes above $10.26, it could extend an additional rally of 19% to retest its April 12 high of $12.21.

Aptos’s on-chain data further supports the bullish thesis. Coinglass’s data shows that the futures’ Open Interest (OI) in Aptos at exchanges is also increasing. The OI indicates the total number of outstanding derivative contracts that have not been settled (offset by delivery) and whether money flows into the contract are increasing or decreasing.

Increasing OI represents new or additional money entering the market and new buying, which suggests a bullish trend. On the contrary, when OI decreases, it is usually a sign that the market is liquidating, more investors are leaving, and prices may decrease.

The graph below shows that APT’s OI increased from $119.23 million on October 2 to $191.84 million on Saturday, the highest level since mid-April. This rise indicates that new or additional money is entering the market and new buying is occurring.

Coinglass’s long-to-short ratio, at 1.04, is at its highest level in a month, further supporting Aptos's bullish outlook. This ratio above one reflects bullish sentiment in the market, as more traders are betting on the asset price to rise.

However, if APT’s daily candlestick closes below $7.23, the bullish thesis will be invalidated. This scenario would cause Aptos's price to decline by 12% and retest its next daily support at $6.32.

Dollar presses 102 as the 10-year yield sits at 5.14% — and October hike odds are only 17%The dollar index closed at 101.99 (+0.20%) on Monday after briefly topping 102.07, while the 10-year Treasury yield rose to 5.14% and the 2-year hit 4.774% — yet futures price only about a 17% chance of a hike at the October 27-28 FOMC, versus roughly 90% for December. The driver is a global bond selloff, not a Fed repricing: France's 10-year OAT jumped to 4.84% ~ 4.94% and the OAT-Bund spread widened to 140 ~ 146bp. Here are the levels, the cross-asset read-through and what to watch.

Meta's AI bill just hit $145 billion — and it issued a new share class to pay for itMeta reported record third-quarter revenue of $64.60 billion, up 26% from a year earlier, and raised full-year 2026 capital expenditure guidance to $135-145 billion from $130-145 billion. To fund that build-out without touching Mark Zuckerberg's voting control, the company announced a 2-for-1 stock split that hands every Class A holder a new non-voting Class C share. Here are the four lines that matter, the peer group that is being re-rated alongside it, and the bull and bear cases.

Nasdaq closes at 26,008.86 — 8.9 points above 26,000, and the credit market never blinkedThe Nasdaq Composite fell 2.60% to 26,008.86 on October 22, its worst session since June, as Meta sank 6.98% on 2026 capex guidance of $135–145 billion.
