With the ASTER price facing a sharp fall amid the broader crypto market correction, experts believe that this could be a buy-the-dip opportunity.
Over the past week, the ASTER price saw a massive 1700% rally, taking the crypto world by storm and entering the list of top 50 digital assets by market cap.
As of September 22, the altcoin is trading 6% down at $1.57 with its market cap at $2.6 billion.
After a drop to $1.30, the ASTER price has already bounced back more than 20% from the intraday bottom.
Crypto analyst Altcoin Sherpa shared his outlook on Aster, noting that he sold part of his position around $1.80 while still holding the majority.

Sherpa suggested that a potential dip-buying opportunity could emerge in the $1.13-$1.25 range, which he believes may act as a support zone. However, he cautioned that the project could still lose momentum if confidence fades.
Looking ahead, he said he plans to use a trailing stop and sell portions of his holdings on the next price bounce. Analyst Sherpa also made it clear that he does not intend to hold $ASTER for extreme upside targets like $10
