Let us see then if it rises or it crashes, though I am positive with the rise to continue and more stable it gets at current price better so that it can sustain the drop and not be a major one if correction had to happen or big investors sell before the new year. Let us hope it can cross 17k or be near that by year end.
A big drop may follow after bitcoin reach a new ATH, since bitcoin price increase gradually instead of instant hence the support levels are more robust than before.
At this point, short is riskier than long position because bitcoin shows the sign of uptrend pattern isn't over yet.
Bitcoin may stay in this sideways pattern for a week before starts to climb higher, just enjoy the current price while it lasts, buys it.
