slowed down during the holiday period. The price slipped by around one percent and traded near one point five six dollars. Market activity was quiet and many traders stayed on the sidelines.
During the last twenty four hours APT moved between one point six two dollars and one point five six dollars. This shows a narrow price range and low movement compared to active trading days. The market did not show strong energy from either buyers or sellers.
Price action showed a clear struggle near one point six three dollars. Each time the price moved toward that level sellers stepped in and pushed it lower. This area has acted as a short term barrier where buyers failed to take control.
On the downside support stayed firm near one point five six dollars. Buyers defended this level several times which helped prevent a deeper fall. As trading slowed the price stayed close to this support area showing balance between demand and supply.
Trading volume was lower than normal when compared with the past month. This drop in activity suggests trader fatigue and reduced interest during the holiday season. However short bursts of higher volume appeared during moments of selling which points to quick reactions rather than steady trends.
At one stage volume increased sharply as the price pulled back from one point six two dollars. This move showed that some holders chose to take profit near the top of the range. After that the market cooled again and price settled lower.
Earlier price behavior formed a double bottom near one point five two dollars. This pattern often signals that sellers are losing strength. After forming this base the token moved back above one point five six dollars which gave a short term recovery signal.
Even with that bounce the price failed to build strong momentum. Buyers were not confident enough to push toward higher levels. This keeps the market in a waiting phase where traders watch for the next clear move.
Right now the most important level to watch remains one point five six dollars. If this support holds the price may attempt another slow move higher. A break above one point five eight dollars could bring more buyers back into the market.
On the other hand if price falls below one point five six dollars the next area of interest sits near one point five two dollars. That level has already proven strong in the past and may again attract buyers.
Overall Aptos is moving in a calm and tight range. The market mood is quiet and cautious. With low volume and limited price action traders appear to be waiting for stronger signals.
Once normal market activity returns after the holidays volatility may increase. Until then APT is likely to remain steady with small moves around key support and resistance zones.
