Thanks for the update my dear friend Hacknoid, but I've a strong feeling that the above chart will be violated as we will get towards $900+-$1K+ before 12/31

I sure hope so - would be nice. But I'll take a rise to $1k+ sometime in the first half of 2017... that's fine with me.
Nice to see you're still around, Fak - still missing the "everything bullish" news items!
hope so, i just don't think there is a pattern like what hacknoid stated above
the pattern might will not remain the same, especially if we talking about bitcoin
the demands always be flickle notably when the price as high as now
most people will think to sell rather than to keep buying more , this situation drive price to dropped, by the end of this year before 12/31 i guess there will be a high drop.
Things have definitely been changing... as I indicated back in the spring, all indicators are that something is/will be changing this cycle. I don't know if that means a (temporary) stagnation, mass adoption or something else, but the overall cycles of price keep repeating, sometimes on different scales in time or value.
Let's also not forget that there is a natural volatility to the market (as there is with all markets) - nothing goes up in a straight line. However, in 7 years of trading, Bitcoin price has been rising overall. The number of people that own/invest in Bitcoin is still quite tiny, and as it gains ground worldwide it will continue to increase in price.
I actually found 2 places to use BTC in the wild this week, just by chance. We haven't crossed the chasm yet, but we are definitely firming up the technology and the committed user base. Again, just hope one way or another block size issues are resolved.
And just to leave on a positive note, here's a happy image for you:
