I am actually surprised that the market still maintains its position above the $4000 mark without much effort. Sure, selling pressure is there, but it's not something so strong that it pushes the market down a lot.

It's either people just waiting for the market to make a next big move, or people are genuinely not interested in selling their coins at current levels ~ people start to realize that if they sell now, they might end up paying premiums to buy back.

It has been like that when the price broke through the $1000 mark > $2000 mark > $3000 mark > $4000 mark. The bullish sentiment has never been this high, and this is definitely a good foundation to keep building on.

After bitcoin reach $5000, who want to sell below $4500? Unless, you are daily traders or desperately need for money.
If bitcoin remain fluctuate and downtrend keep showing up, people will tend to hold or sell but actually it is a good price to buy more bitcoin.
We know bitcoin will recover and reach $5000 again, just time matter whether it would be few days later, next week or next month.
