According to CoinGecko, APT\u2019s current performance is lackluster with the token falling 15% since last week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Korea Blockchain Week has generated quite a lot of buzz for Aptos. During this event, several on-chain developments have been revealed. Although positive developments on-chain are a great sign of long-term growth for the platform, investors and traders are still struggling to overcome the market\u2019s fear, uncertainty and doubt.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Aptos Continues Drive Down Towards $5.74\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As of writing, APT bulls have been aiming to wrestle control of the token\u2019s momentum in the short term. However, the bears are pressing their advantage, targeting $5.74 in the short-term timeframe after flipping the $6.12 support to resistance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The market\u2019s continuous downward trajectory is the primary reason for APT\u2019s underperformance. Driven by FUD from the broader financial market that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.investing.com\/news\/stock-market-news\/european-stocks-slip-lower-risk-sentiment-fragile-ahead-of-payrolls-3602133\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bled<\/a> to the crypto market, APT might face continued losses in the coming weeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>APT\u2019s relative strength index (RSI) suggests that the token\u2019s downward trajectory will continue well below the $5.74 support level. If this occurs, it might lead to a bigger sell-off localized on APT\u2019s market.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>This thesis has a larger possibility to occur as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/LongShortRatio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CoinGlass<\/a> notes that short positions outnumber long positions in the past 24 hours further strengthening the token\u2019s bearish trajectory.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Investors and traders should monitor the coming release of macro indicators due today. As the markets continue to price in a broader downturn, positive macros will provide the needed boost for both the traditional markets and the crypto market in the long term.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Korea Blockchain Week Reveals New Developments On Aptos<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Aptos Experience in Korea Blockchain Week continues to garner the attention of the community.
