Cryptocurrency prices have pulled back in the past few days, but a few signals point to an eventual comeback.
Bitcoin (BTC) price has formed a cup-and-handle pattern, pointing to potential gains that could take it to $140,000. ETF inflows have also jumped and are nearing the key milestone of $50 billion.
Similarly, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index has surged to a record high of $22,500, while the S&P 500 Index has climbed to $6,170. Both indices are up over 27% from their April lows.
Further, there are signs the Federal Reserve may begin cutting interest rates in September, while the US dollar index has plunged. Additionally, the U.S. and China are reportedly close to signing a new trade agreement.
Best altcoins to buy today ahead of the bull run
The bullish Bitcoin pattern and the surging S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 indices may trigger the next crypto bull run. Some of the top altcoins to buy are Sei (SEI), Aptos (APT), and Aerodrome Finance (AERO).
1. Sei
Sei is one of the best-positioned altcoins ahead of the next bull run. It’s a fast-growing EVM-compatible chain gaining traction in gaming, DeFi, and stablecoins. It’s also under consideration to run Wyoming’s stablecoin initiative.
The Sei price has risen from a year-to-date low of $0.1315 to a high of $0.3337 on June 25. It recently broke through resistance at $0.2767, invalidating the previous double-top formation.
With the price now above both the 50-day and 100-day moving averages and the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement, further gains are likely. Bulls may target the 50% retracement level at $0.4340.
2. Aptos
Aptos is another promising altcoin as equity indices rise. Like Sei, it’s a layer-1 blockchain slowly gaining traction. According to DeFi Llama’s data, Aptos-based DEXs processed over $4 billion in the past 30 days, with a total value locked (TVL) of $1.3 billion, ranking it 12th in the industry.
APT price has formed a double-bottom at $3.88, with the neckline at $6.30. This bullish pattern points to a potential breakout, with an upside target near $10 if the neckline is breached.
3. Aerodrome Finance
Aerodrome Finance is a leading DEX on the Base blockchain, processing billions in monthly trading volume.
The AERO price has rallied from a low of $0.2963 in April to $0.80 as of June 27. It has formed an ascending triangle pattern and is hovering near the 23.6% retracement level. A mini golden cross, where the 50-day moving average crosses above the 100-day MA, has formed, a bullish signal. If momentum holds, the next target is the $2 resistance level.
