Actually its really hard to predict what will happened in the future because its sad to hope for something we did not happened and for the plans that did not succeed. Though its not bad to hope but manage your expectation, just go with the flow or process and you will see you can make it. We all knew that Bitcoin is price is volatile and all of we said is all prediction based on the previous years when the bitcoin rise before the end of this year.
Even though 2018 is not good for bitcoin price because its always downfall and its hard for it to rise again still who knows that before or after this year the price would change.
Technical analysis and past events can give us a blink on the future. After the top at 1140 on 2013, we had a bear market of about 2 years next. And the recovery was very slow and took bitcoin two more years to be able to make a new high. Be prepared for about 6 months more of crashing and then 6 months at least of consolidation at very low prices. I can't be shore of nothing, but I already lost hopes on 2019.
But don't trust me. This isn't a recommendation. Do your homework.
