There are people waiting to dump it again like spreading fuds, well recovery from $10k might be getting harder and harder every time bitcoin falls under $9k. Lot of people are saying april could be the start of the bull run, well i hope they were right 
You have really observed that the $10,000 has been a difficult task to surmount after it dropped from hitting $11,000 3weeks ago. Since then, it is a difficult run. I think there is a resistance around $10,000 that needs to be broken down totally.
