The downward trending line (green) and the resistance at around $4,040 (pink). In the short-term, the buyers definitely need to break through that resistance for the market to go up.

Looking at the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) and 20-day SMA curves. The curves intersected each other on Monday, January 7 and that should indicate an upcoming bullish trend. Also, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is slowly creeping towards the oversold territory to once again indicate a future uptrend.
