The charts don’t lie—Bitcoin is on its eighth consecutive green week, and while altcoins sleep, BTC continues to carry the market. Today we’re featuring an in-depth market breakdown from Craig Cobb of The Grow Me Co, who’s been crushing trades and sticking to his proven strategy. His analysis of trend strength, divergences, and risk management is exactly the kind of trading education we need more of in this space.
"We’ve been absolutely snotting the market at the moment."

Trader Cobb’s Take on the Market
Craig opened with his signature strategy insight: trading pullbacks into the "cradle zone." Last Friday’s market dip—about 3.9%—coincided with President Trump’s tariff threats against Europe, but BTC quickly absorbed the shock and bounced. The trend remains strong, and price is pushing against the $110,000 resistance line, just shy of new all-time highs.
On the weekly chart, this marks eight straight green candles—an unusually strong stretch of bullish momentum.
"Never have I wanted to be more wrong. I said we might go sideways, but we pushed to new highs. You beauty."
Craig points out that the monthly chart is up over 16.7% for May, with textbook bullish structure. Despite minor resistance ahead, he believes the trend remains intact unless we see a definitive structural shift.
My Take:
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again—we’re not in a melt-up phase yet, but this is what it starts to feel like. As Craig notes, the move from early May has been textbook. The important thing is execution: stick to the plan, don’t let emotions lead, and trade the trend until it breaks.
Altcoins: Mostly Sideways
While Bitcoin takes the spotlight, most altcoins are consolidating:
Ethereum: Sideways
Binance (BNB): Slight move up last week (+2.79%)
Cardano, Doge, Solana, XRP, Tron, LINK, AVAX: Mostly flat
Bitcoin dominance climbed by 0.57%, reinforcing BTC’s leadership. According to Craig, the total market cap did notch a higher high but showed bearish divergence on the MACD—an early sign of possible trend exhaustion.
"First sign of potential weakness… doesn’t mean it’ll fall, just not looking as strong."
Trader Cobb’s Open Trades
Craig also shared several winning positions from the past couple weeks:
Hyperliquid (HYPE): 2x move since entry, with leverage it’s a $10K+ profit from a $500 risk.
Binance (BNB): Entered on a cradle zone pullback, hit target, and is now at break-even.
Anime (ANIME): Similar cradle setup, target hit, stop moved up for locked-in profit.
These weren’t cherry-picked hindsight trades—Craig’s sharing entries in real time with his Discord community.
"Practice what I preach? You betcha."

Summary
