On the afternoon of January 18, 2026, at 14:59, market volatility was evident, with multiple trading opportunities worth noting in the short term.
**Leading Gainers**
BIFI led strongly, soaring 14.16% within one hour, with the price jumping from $181.5 directly to $207.2, a single increase of up to $25.70. Spot trading activity reached 17.35 times, and although there was some buying pressure, it was not enough to stop the upward momentum.
FRAX also performed impressively, ranking on the gainers list for two consecutive periods, rising 9.30% to $1.006. Interestingly, this time, both spot (volume 2.82x) and futures (volume 2.97x) were hot, with bulls holding the advantage (long-short ratio 1.19), and the funding rate was negative (-0.1617%), indicating potential for a significant move brewing.
RARE increased by 7.22% to $0.0312, with both spot and futures showing activity, and a long-short ratio of 1.73; RIVER was also not to be outdone, continuously on the list with a 6.56% increase, breaking through $25; LUMIA's gains were more moderate (4.13%), but a spot volume of 27.53x indicates high market participation.
**Decliners**
FHE led the decline, dropping 5.12% in one hour to $0.1468; SLP, BLUR, OL, NAORIS, and others experienced minor corrections, with declines in the 2-3% range. However, it is noteworthy that even among the declining assets, the proportion of long positions remained relatively high (long-short ratio above 1.5), suggesting overall market sentiment still leans bullish.
**Trading Tips**
Abnormal volume fluctuations in the short term often signal the start of new trends. The continuous appearance of FRAX and RIVER on the gainers list is worth monitoring. Additionally, keep an eye on changes in the futures funding rate and the long-short position ratios, as these data points can help assess risk levels.

BIFI's recent surge is really fierce, with 17 times the volume hitting hard. It feels like either this is a trap to attract buyers or it's really about to break the support level.

bifi this wave is really fierce, directly reaching $207. Now I'm a bit afraid to chase in.
Frax being on the list consecutively is interesting; the fee rate is still negative, which suggests a big move is brewing.
Lumia's trading volume is insane, with 27x heat... Be careful not to get cut.
FHE has dropped but no one is selling; the bullish ratio is so high that risk should be cautious.
Rare can't break 0.04; feels like I should wait.
River is rising so fast, will it crash after the surge? Something feels off.
Frax's long-short ratio looks reasonable, but who will buy the dip with negative fees?
All the heat is on small coins now. How's Bitcoin doing? Haven't checked.

BIFI's recent surge is quite strong, directly breaking 200. Those following the trend should be careful about catching the bag.

BIFI this wave is indeed fierce, but it feels a bit hollow...
---
Is the negative fee rate for FRAX still dominated by bulls? This trick feels a bit familiar
---
Here we go again, the repeated claim of consecutive listings is getting a bit tiresome
---
Unusual trading volume = market launch? I feel like it's just the night before a leek-cutting
---
LUMIA 27.53x spot trading volume, is this high participation or are they accumulating?
---
FHE only led by 5 points? I thought it had crashed
---
The high proportion of bulls actually makes me more cautious; overly uniform sentiment is often not a good sign
---
Can anyone tell me why RARE, this micro-cap coin, suddenly surged?
---
When the funding rate is negative, it's easiest to dump the market; that's an old trick
---
Looking at these data, they all seem a bit deliberately arranged

BIFI's surge to $25 has skyrocketed, with spot trading volume exploding over 17 times. This pace feels unusual.
FRAX's negative interest rate and the strong long-short ratio suggest that something big might be brewing.
Unusual trading volume is a signal; this is when it's easiest to get caught off guard. Keep a close eye on funding rates.
RIVER has consistently ranked and broken past 25. These coins are quite interesting.
Even with many declining assets, the bullish proportion remains high, indicating the market is not scared at all.
It seems short-term hot spots are rotating. Be cautious when chasing highs, everyone.
