In a note circulated on his personal channel, veteran trader Eugene Ng Ah Sio described navigating this month’s volatility and adopting a Stage-based framework. He indicated that many altcoins appear to have reached Stage 5 (Regime 5), while mainstream cryptocurrencies remain in Stage 4, awaiting a decisive DAT-driven shift.
Given the assessment, readers are advised to actively build a focused watchlist and set disciplined buy orders. Rather than wagering on a post-rebound short, participants should stay prepared to deploy capital on favorable pullbacks as the market stabilizes.
Although the year proved challenging, the analyst suggested 2026 could offer improved liquidity and opportunity. Traders should monitor risk controls, adhere to predefined entry criteria, and seek credible data confirmations before adjusting allocations in the evolving crypto market.
