I think the previous rally ( of 12th & 13th October) was supported a lot by a kind a FOMO, and was not based on real demand.

If there was real fear about forks, the price would go a lot lower
No you are wrong the price of bitcoin in not get lower in the future because the demand or need of bitcoin is countinously increases by the people. So that the price of bitcoin is also rise in the future. There are equal opportunity of price of bitcoin it may be rise or it may be drop. But there are more chance to increase the price of bitcoin.
