The Futures Rundown 66: The Madness of Metals, Crypto, Cocoa and More

The futures markets are living multiple lifetimes in just a few short weeks! Join host Mark Longo from the Options Insider Radio Network and special guest Carley Garner of DeCarley Trading as they navigate the volatile landscape of the early 2026 markets. In this episode, the duo dives deep into the "symmetrical madness" of the week, analyzing why thin markets like Oats and Orange Juice are leading the charge while heavy hitters like Bitcoin and Cocoa face massive pullbacks. Is the Bitcoin double-top signaling a broader correction for the Nasdaq and S&P 500? And is Coffee poised to follow in the footsteps of Cocoa's historic boom-and-bust cycle? Highlights include: The Trading Pit: Breaking down the 16% surge in OJ and the surprising resilience of Oats. Crypto & Equities: Carly discusses the correlation between Bitcoin and the Nasdaq—and why $30,000 might be on the horizon. The Ags & Softs: A deep dive into the 45% year-to-date crash in Cocoa and why "Coffee is the new Cocoa." Energy Update: Why the "textbook" Nat Gas trade actually worked this year. The Active 15: A look at the volume leaders, from the Japanese Yen to the Treasury five-year note.
