TON is #1 in annual staking rewards among the 50 largest cryptocurrencies.

That’s on top of the coin’s price growth, which doubled this week.

Current list of VOLUME growers.

Volume is the best TELL that something is GOING ON with a stock, it might already be known and is being priced in or not yet known information.

Real setups ONLY ooccurs on ACTIVE stocks. Fake setups on no volume. It is easy to be fooled..

ENJOY!

Wanna know what themes are hot...

Look for the strongest stocks with huge volume (that doesnt go away)

Number of 20% moves in a 5-day period at a high level typically leads to stalling action/pullbacks.

Both the Market Wizards from Stockbee Marsten Parker @mars10p have and Kristjan Kullamägi

have the same message. Don't think trading is easy. It takes a ton of self-leadership, setup, and situational awareness to make it in this field.

41 kidnappings of crypto holders in France in 3.5 months of 2026.

Why?

🥖 French tax officials selling crypto owners' data to criminals (Ghalia C.) + massive tax database leaks.

Now the state also wants IDs and private messages of social media users.

More data = More victims.

💥💥The Logic Behind 5 Star Setup System

My trading system revolves around structure. The 5 star setup is not about perfection - it's about probabilities👇

🟢Star 1 - Trend Alignment :
Price must be above MA 20 & MA 50 , with all Moving Average Rising.

🟢Star 2 - Fundamentals/Story :
Quarterly EPS growth + 50% and/or sales growth + 20% OR an inspiring strong story! Institution buy growth, not hope.

🟢Star 3 - Technical Structure :
Flat bases, Tight bases or VCP'S -- Volatility must contract before expansion.

🟢Star 4 - Relative Strength :
Stock should show RS behavior. Leaders lead early

🟢Star 5 - Volume Confirmation :
Multiple 2x average volume spikes and strong volume on up days.

🟢Star 6 - Risk Filter :
No setups during choppy markets - Avoid trading against market direction.

🟢Star 7 - Liquidity Rules :
Pick liquid stocks.

🟢Star 8 - Conviction Check ;
If it doesn't feel obvious and structured - Skip it.

🟢Star 9 - Post Trade Review :
Grade every trade on all 5 stars. Data drives consistency.

Most traders are still manually scanning stocks every morning…

What if your watchlist built itself before the market even opens?

How are you using AI to find your trades?

[Mark Minervini @markminervini]

I haven’t had a serious drawdown since the 1980s—just a few single-digit down years in over three decades. How? A deep respect for risk and unconditional patience.
A few key rules:
1. Always cut losses short - no big losses. no exceptions!
2. Only trade large on the heels of smaller trades working
3. Always trade progressively smaller when
trades aren't working
4. Never average down
5. Never let a good-size gain turn into a loss
6. No forced trades - no style drift

There may or may not have been a situation in the Situation Room last night. Reports remain unconfirmed.

However, the situation monitors are now on… & ready to be monitored.

See you at 11am.

[stockbee @PradeepBonde]

The further this gets stretched, the better it is. Levels below 10 are best for the start of new moves.
A breadth thrust after such extreme readings will be what I would look for.

William J. O'Neil called it the Breakout.
Nicolas Darvas called it the Box.
Jesse Livermore called it the Pivot Point.
Mark Minervini calls it VCP.

Same market truth: Pressure builds… then price explodes.
