APT and AVAX: Altcoin Analysis for August 29, 2023

Aptos has been on a downward trajectory since February 2023, when it reached its high at $19.9. The current trend is bearish, with the asset trading between a support zone of $4.83 and $5.53. A significant batch of buy orders is positioned at the psychological $4.00 mark.

To pivot to an upward momentum, APT must break through the resistance zone stretching from $6.13 to $6.62 and surpass the $7.2 mark. A critical challenge for buyers will be navigating the broad range between $7.67 and $8.5. The market's reaction here will offer insights into its future direction. Any surge needs to be backed by significant trading volumes; otherwise, any upward shift might be short-lived. 

Additionally, come autumn, there will be a release of APT tokens for private investors who initially bought in at the $2-$3 range. If most of these tokens are sold, it could exert downward pressure on the APT price, sidelining technical analysis indicators.

The current market perspective for Avalanche doesn't paint a bright picture. Just last week, on August 23, Avalanche reached its annual low at $9.7. Now, AVAX has seen a slight bounce back from the support levels of $9.7-$10.0. The challenge here is the absence of current support levels on the chart. It's been a considerable time since the AVAX price was this low, making prior trading orders somewhat obsolete.

The next significant resistance zone, which might trigger further drops, lies between $10.62 and $11.0. Beyond this, there are sell orders at around $11.4 and within the range of $11.68-$12.24. A sustained move above the $13 mark would signal a potential end to AVAX's downward momentum.
