We're neither going up or down, we're just moving between the levels you spoke about. As more people begin to realize and act on those levels the band will become smaller and eventually it will burst one way or another, forcing us either towards 3k or 5k.
We are moving sideways right now and it can pump and dump at no specific time as the market is still in a down trend. Its too early to be sad because 2019 will be a great one for sure, I expect more pumps compare to dump this year and since bitcoin and eth are cheap again, you can now buy more.
