99% of traders (aka "the crowd") fail because they buy at the top and sell at the bottom.
To make $$$, contrarians buy into the panic near major support, and sell to the newbies into strength at the top.
On Bitcoin's $10,000 failure, notice the RED BOX - the convergence of 200 EMA, major trendline and 61.8% Fibonacci.
Expect institutional and "smart money"...
Solid uptrending support line from November 12. Higher lows with retest on December 22 in the mid 10,000s. Now tested and held 13,000ish with short-term double bottom against trendline. We have tightening consolidation inside this symmetrical triangle, with apex occurring in the 14,500s around January 24. Expect a strong move between now and the 24th as momentum...
This shows how solid the A/T pattern is when finding the probability of a bullish move. Strong 1000 magnet after apex breakout recently. Would take partial profits into the 1000 push, as it may act like a psychological ceiling while it consolidates.
