Aptos gains 9.15% this week

Highlights

Aptos trades at $0.8863, rising 9.15% over the past 7 days and maintaining a constructive daily structure.
Momentum and volatility remain elevated, with buyers dominating and the price well above short- and long-term moving averages.
Aptos is projected to fluctuate between $0.7723 and $1.0204, with resistance at $0.9655 and support at $0.8282.

Ecosystem upgrades and reduced token supply reshape sentiment during the week

Aptos activated an optional encrypted mempool feature on its mainnet on October 12, 2026, enabling users to conceal pending transaction details and strengthen protections against frontrunning, according to Cryptopolitan. The week also saw the completion of the four-year token unlock schedule for core contributors and early investors, cutting monthly APT token releases by about 60%. In addition, Aptos Foundation and Aptos Labs announced a combined commitment of over $50 million to drive on-chain trading infrastructure and AI-related projects, while Block-STM v2 became the protocol's default parallel execution engine for improved blockchain speed and usability.

Bullish momentum prevails as ADX and volatility confirm upward trend

The daily chart signals a sustained move higher with a firm trend, reinforced by rising momentum and volatility sitting at 28.72%. Bull/Bear Power and ADX both point to strong buyer dominance, with the ADX reading at 29.7046 indicating a trending market. Support is found at the Ichimoku Kijun level of $0.8282, while resistance is set by the weekly high at $0.9655. This setup favors continuation to the upside, with trend momentum currently prevailing.

Upside bias persists barring support loss as range outlook dominates next week

Over the coming week, Aptos is expected to trade between $0.7723 and $1.0204. There is a very high probability (more than 80%) of a further increase, with a very low probability of a decrease. The base case sees price holding inside this range, while a clear push above $0.9655 resistance could open the way for further gains. A break below $0.8282 support would challenge the bullish outlook and suggest deeper retracement toward the lower end of the range.

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, sees Aptos (APT) holding firm near $0.89 after a 9% weekly gain, as buyers showed notable control. He notes that strong sentiment followed the protocol’s encrypted mempool activation and a major token unlock milestone, which trimmed fresh supply and boosted market confidence. Daily chart momentum remains strong, with volatility at 28.72% and ADX at 29.7046, signaling an entrenched trend. Turakhiya believes a move above the $0.9655 resistance could signal further upside, while a drop below $0.8282 would challenge the positive outlook for the week ahead. "Momentum and news support the bulls — but I’ll only trust a breakout if $0.9655 gives way in the coming days."

Earlier, analysts noted that Aptos had shifted from sustained downside pressure to renewed bullish momentum supported by robust technical trends and network improvements. The current article adds further depth by highlighting positive supply and protocol developments, suggesting that traders should monitor for sustained price action above resistance as momentum builds for a potential breakout.
