Looks like the Santa Claus rally came late.
That sudden pump has rekindled people talking about bull markets. Looking at it more sensibly, this is a big movement within current limits. It’s nice, but it’s not a massive unexpected ATH or anything.
It’s made a nice bump in my numbers, though, and put me back into the positive. That’s a really nice start to the year, whatever comes next!
Anyway, here are this week’s figures:
84 days with this new approach and only 80 years to go for a million! lol
In detail:
- Trading up 18.29%
- Copy Trading down 0.66%
- Banking up 4.84%
- Overall up 5.61%
Surprisingly, my trading has done MUCH better than anything else this week: my picks for the year have all followed the upward rise (though GRT’s still way below my buy price from before the drop).
That rise also caught out two of the copy traders I’m testing: they both shorted PEPE, it went up 30% and they went bankrupt. That’s why at least one month of testing is so important – and why I’ll probably extend testing for the others for another month. It’s a shame, as one of them was doing really well and I’d hoped to add them to my ongoing follows. Oh, well.
Banking’s done nicely, too, since it’s all HODLing the big three (BTC, ETH, SOL). Long may it continue. 🙂
The markets are going to be in a real “wait and see” state for a while, I’m guessing. I’ll keep doing what I’m doing – just look at that equity change in 12 weeks!
’26 Picks
I said I might do a little table when I picked my coins for ’26, and I can rarely resist the chance for more simple stats and numbers.
So here it is, the ’26 Picks update:
Look at ’em go! 🙂
I have to admit that this is difficult for me. With 3 of those coins already over 20%, I’d normally have taken the profit with a very big smile. But these are my longer-term picks for the year, so I’m forcing myself to stick with them. At least until a 2x or more!
I’ll probably regret that.
Has your portfolio pumped this week? Got caught short on anything? I’d love to hear!
