Crypto market always works on demand and supply. If there is a good reason for people to buy crypto then the demand will increase which will spike the bullish trend. Right now, the upcoming halving is a good reason and I think this is why BTC was raised to $10k.
May be people took profits and hence it had a fall in the price but I see bitcoin slowly recovering in price.
If we see more positive news in the market then may be the stability will increase and we may see more increase in bitcoin's price.
In light of this original post being made days before the recent crypto market crush, it is fair to say that until today we were in a slow but somewhat progressive rise but given today's circumstances the opposite is true.
I do agree that no matter in which direction the market is heading the opposition/resistance follows almost immediately but the danger with that is that nobody knows exactly how strong these resistance points are. At the moment $8000 seems to be it, but because nobody knows when, or if it will go below that, people are still in the risk zone for both buying and selling, thus the market remains as indeterminate as ever!
