January 9th & 12th, 2026 Live Trading Room Market Recap & Trades - (Samantha and AI Briefing notes)
TRADE UPDATES
SPX - Friday I warned of weekend risk. Monday we gapped down. VIX opened at 15.98 to which I said live that a break below 15.78 will be a long in SPX to fill the Sunday gap. Yup, yup, yup!
QQQ - Still a case for weeks of “not if but when” 631.19. Getting closer...
USDJPY - still moving higher into 158.88 before potential hot run into 160/161 where I expect (yen) intervention AND volatility in metals.
Gold - still have $6K this year but at this rate could see $5200 by March.
Silver - still have $150 this year, but have no idea when as this is moving 4X faster than gold.
TREND LONG UDATE
CBI - has doubled since rec’d one year ago that it would double. Now take care.
SWING LONG UPDATES - ALL WORKING!!
