Feb 5, 2026 Katie Stockton, founder of Fairlead Strategies and technical-analysis expert, breaks down crypto charts and momentum indicators. She walks through Bitcoin’s trend reversal, Ichimoku cloud breakdown, and why extreme oversold readings do not guarantee a bottom.

Episode notes
Bitcoin's Uptrend Has Reversed
- Technical indicators show Bitcoin has reversed its uptrend after breaking the Ichimoku cloud and losing long-term momentum.
- Monthly MACD and stochastic readings point to a growing downtrend and recently reached oversold levels that historically take months to resolve.
Use Multiple Indicators Before Reentering
- Wait for a weight-of-evidence signal before redeploying capital and avoid anticipating contrarian buy signals.
- Use a combination of indicators (stochastic, MACD, DeMarc, moving averages, Ichimoku cloud) across timeframes to confirm momentum shifts.
Watch Oversold Retests On Weekly Charts
- Look for an 'oversold retest' on the weekly stochastic as an intermediate-term low signal.
- Confirm with shorter-term momentum shifts (daily stochastic/MACD) before adding exposure.
