The "Trump pump" continued last week as BTC hit a massive $93k, another new ATH. Later in the week some of that progress did retrace mainly due to news events such as CPR & PPI data as well as profit taking/ de-risking. 

This week should be an interesting one as we see an early surge after weekly close putting BTC back at $92,000. As president-elect Trump announces his picks for roles in his new administration, the rumour is that Howard Lutnick may become Treasury secretary after backing from Elon Musk and RFK Jr, Lutnick would be a very pro crypto choice which has great potential for the space, with a new SEC chairman after the firing of Gary Gensler and the potential Bitcoin strategic reserve. Things are looking bullish bullish bullish!

With BTC.D now at 60%, this would indicate although BTC hit new ATH altcoins are outpacing the market leader in growth. Memes are taking centre stage this Bullrun even though historically that stage of the cycle tends to be towards the end. Every other metric suggests this Bullrun is far from over so it's definitely something to take into consideration.  

This week I would like to see some breakout continuation patterns on fundamentally strong altcoins, as well as bitcoin, I do believe it is dips are for buying season going into the end of the year. A dip could be triggered by a loss of the diagonal support & 0.75 line shown on the chart which would provide a better entry/DCA opportunity after a leverage flush.
