According to CoinMarketCap data, APT soared to a daily high of $5.39 after an almost 50% surge in trading volume. While still trading at a discount of 72.95% to its all-time high, APT has shot up 17% in the past week itself.

Aptos (APT) to $10?
Based on the daily chart below, the Fibonacci Retracement from the $4.49 low to $5.815 high shows APT is reclaiming key levels. The price has decisively broken above the 0.618 level at $5.31, which now serves as support.
Interestingly, APT could next retest the 0.786 Fib at $5.53. If broken, the path to $5.81 (swing high) and the 1.618 Fib extension at $6.63 becomes highly probable.
Beyond that, if the broader altcoin sentiment stays strong, Aptos could target the psychological $10 level.

The MACD is bullish as the MACD line (blue) is above the signal line (orange) and moving higher into positive territory, suggesting continued upward momentum. Growing histogram bars further validate this trend.
Meanwhile, the RSI stands at 58.20, rising steadily but still below overbought levels. This provides room for further upside without signaling exhaustion.
