I have seen many positive predictions for the next year lately so I just don't see why the market will continue to go down or to remain the same.
From your words, we can conclude that the market is influenced by forecasts

I also thought about it. After the pump in 2013, BTC recovered after three years. But then the money in the market was significantly less. Now the market is more inert than in 2013-2016. So, I do not expect a turn and recovery in the near future, because only a year has passed.
