Weekly Recap (January 5-January 11, 2026)
This week started out with a “bang” as we had numerous coins breaking out of their downward trends, many dating back as far as July. We saw PONKE go over 100% in a day; this is the exact type of price movement off the floor that we would expect and have been expecting. $JASMY and $WIF both had some gas early in the week as well. We’ve talked about taking the 10/10 levels back pretty quickly once we get moving. A handful of alts have hit that level, but a majority are still a little shy. By Tuesday, we recognize that the RSI on a lot of coins were overheated and we were expecting a cool off. That’s exactly what happened as the back half of this week was a little bit quieter and we took back a little of the postiive price action. Not a lot, just a little, which is healthy price movement.
One of the key videos this week was the “DXY Mirroring Last 2 Altseasons” You can find that video here. We’re all about the macro here and past patterns may not repeat, but they certainly rhyme. The price action of the DXY right now is eerily similar to what it did during our past altseason runs. So many conditions are starting to line up for us on the macro.
Perhaps the biggest macro indicator right now is the RTY (Russel2000). I saw that bubbling on Thursday and on Friday, we ended up getting a nice break into new All-Time highs. We talk about this constatnly, but the RTY is the altcoins of the stock market. If investor confidence is high, they invest in small cap stocks, which is the Russel. If small cap stocks are going, crypto has a much higher chance of running since its considered a risk asset. A big week this upcoming week for us would be the Russel2000 continuing it’s upside momentum with some authority!
On the geopolitical front, President Trump is urging the Fed to buy $200B of mortgage bonds. What does this mean? More liqudiity for markets. We already saw the Fed come out and say they’d be buying $40B in treasuries a month and expect to increase that number. If they follow through on this $200B, it’d be even better for equities/crypto. We’ve shown in the past how Quantatitive Easing cycles have been huge for markets. The Fed hasn’t said the word “QE” yet, but that’s essentially what they’re doing right now with their actions.
This week we got the short-term trade infrastructure laid out a little bit better. We’ll have daily videos on the short-term trades, as well as still 2 daily macro videos. That section of the website has been ironed out so that you can see my watchlist and you start to understand my thinking and gameplan a couple of days ahead of time!
This weekly recap section is new this week as well and it’ll evolve week to week. I just decided halfway through the week I was going to do it, so next week I’m going to have a breakdown thats organized day by day.
I’m very encouraged by what we saw this week and I expectg Q1 to bring some fun!
