Bitcoin fell in spot trading today to lose its strong gains for the last two days, on increased profit-taking activity, while some forecasts say that these activity will be short as the bullish market run hasn't end yet, due to several positive news about the crypto market.

While Bitcoin jumped to 1-week high of $10,955 today, but it quickly dropped due to corrections and profit taking activity.
Whilst, according to some market's forecasts, these activity will end soon below the $10,000 barrier, as the bullish market run hasn't achieved its targets yet, amid positive news about the cryptomarket.
According to these forecasts, the next target is $11,000, and then further rise to the higher resistance around $12,000.
