$BTC This week was for the HISTORY books.
Assets broke down, one day at a time.
Monday:$QKC
The Russell 2000 fell sharply after hitting new highs of 2838. Small-cap stocks usually fall first when risk starts leaving the market.
Tuesday:$PAXG
The Dollar Index (DXY) dropped to a multi-year low. This happened after Trump said he was not worried about a weaker dollar, and rumors of yen intervention began to spread.
Wednesday:
The S&P 500 sold off. Markets reacted after U.S. officials denied any intervention plans, removing a key support traders were expecting.
Thursday:
The Nasdaq dumped next. Tech stocks finally caught up as selling pressure increased.
Friday:
Gold and silver crashed. This was caused by heavy liquidations and margin pressure, not a sudden drop in physical demand.
Saturday:
Bitcoin and Ethereum sold off. Once selling started in liquid markets, crypto followed. High leverage made the move worse.
This wasn’t random.
It was a chain reaction: small caps → dollar → equities → metals → crypto
