I think people give more credit than credit are due for this event having a significant impact on the price. The impact is much smaller and it only last about 2 or 3 weeks. 
Small impact? I disagree. As op explained, the upcoming halving event could push BTC to a whole new range due to the supply and demand logic. The market has already begun recovering currently and I am expecting a long term impact in this case.Actually I'm waiting for halving to take place in 2020 but I suspect the bullrun will take place a year later meaning by 2021 we will see a huge ATH like never before
Doubt it. The bull run has already begun although it is moving at a slower pace when compared to the 2017 bull run. I am expecting BTC to touch $13K by the end of this year and it will most likely touch a new ATH before the halving event next year.
