You have really a lot of interesting things mentioned in your post! So I hope we can have a good conversation? But let me first answer your question.

I think we can be almost 100% sure that crypto prices will remain volatile. About the price direction we really can't say anything. It could go up by 50% in 1 week. And then 1 bad news item could cause a 50% drop in the next week.

Based on what do you think a new uptrend is entered? Looking at BTC 1 month graph it still is in a down or side trend. Looking at the 1 week graph you can see it is more or less $7,500 for the last week.

What is your definition of low volume?
