we really don't know where the price will go short term, so what's more in long term?
I tend to agree with this, I didn't monitor the market condition for about two months but I expect that the market will have a bullish trend, especially in this last quarter of the year. Which is you're right to focus on the broader, long-term perspective.
Short-term fluctuations may remain unpredictable, we don't know yet where the price is heading, and it could be those predicting the market price will make FUD and won't help the market.
However, IMO, the market might seem more likely that we're encountering strong supply zones rather than a prolonged bearish trend. The consistency of price respect for those areas strengthens the case for their significance.
