We're constantly looking for new trades, new themes, and new trends to profit off of.

As a matter of fact, it's the most important part of all of this.

Your number one job as a technical trader is to identify a trend as early as possible.. and take a position!

And the end of the year is a fantastic time to go through the market and find those new trends.

The earlier we spot where financial institutions are rotating capital into, the better.. because where they're placing their bets now means the potential for huge wins in 2026.

And there's one right now that absolutely no one is talking about.

Everyone's Talking About The Metals

The big wins in Gold, Silver, Platinum and more over the last couple of weeks have cultivated the minds of traders and investors more so than at any point this decade.

This weekend alone was arguably the most bullish I've ever seen my X feed on Silver and Gold. Ever.

​When we took profits on our Silver trade last week, many people let me know dumb it was.

Silver was going to $100.00 by the end of the year. Book it. Until, of course, they woke up this morning..

While the precious metals remind people today that it's generally preferred to buy prior to price going parabolic, I'm looking for the next big theme.

And I think I found one.

This year has been dominated by five key industries: Gold Miners (GDX), Metals and Mining (XME), Clean Energy (PBW), Solar (TAN) and Semiconductors (SMH).

We're obsessed inside of TTI about owning the strongest areas of the market.

It's so important to us that Relative Strength is the second pillar within our Profits Over Prophets Framework.

And that means owning the things that are winning the most.

Let's check out the Solar industry.

Going Green In 2026

The Solar industry ETF TAN is up over 50% this year, beating things like Software (IGV) and Internet (FDN) in the middle of an "AI Bubble."

Here's what it looks like today:

There's a lot to love about this chart.

Since the early April bottom, TAN is up nearly 95% and trending higher above an upwards sloping 200-day moving average.

That's an important feature we look for when confirming strength -- we want to own things heading higher, as confirmed by the most important moving average in the market.

And every time the market pulls back, buyers come in and buy more and more Solar stocks.

We can see that by looking at the bottom indicator, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and taking note that the momentum within the Solar industry has remained firmly above the 50. That means the bulls are unwilling to let the bears come in and influence this new trend.

Lastly, we have a beautiful multi-year base breakout in TAN.

What the market absolutely loves to do is accumulate as many shares as they can within the industry before letting prices breakout higher.

That's exactly what we're seeing in TAN as it traded horizontally for the better part of two years before breaking out this summer and trading into two-year highs.

We like TAN. It has all the looks of an industry on the poise of a breakout year.

So what's the trade?

Looking For The Next Big Leader

There are a few names on our watchlist for early 2026 in the Solar industry.

But one that stands out to me is Sunrun (RUN):

Following all of the same characteristics as TAN, RUN has all three of the most important aspects with in our Profits Over Prophets Framework:

It's trending higher above an upwards sloping 200-day moving average.

It's on the verge of breaking out against the Industry group itself.

And it's holding a bullish momentum regime.

Trend. Relative Strength. Momentum. Every trade we take must have all three of these characteristics before we take them.

There's a great chance of a sustained move higher for RUN following a breakout above 21.50 as the path of least resistance shifts higher.

And when this occurs, we'll attack it using both shares and options, implementing critical leverage while managing risk to take full advantage of what this breakout may turn into.

If you want to outperform the market, you have to own the things that are outperforming the market.

And RUN has all the things we typically see in a potential big winner.

The Entire Profits Over Prophets Framework

When I started typing this email I had no intent to run you through an entire POP Framework mini-session but here we are.

Everything we do stops with our top down process, looking at the bigger picture in totality first and then diving down into the individual trading vehicles.

By stacking as many variables that matter in our favor, the odds of these trades working rises exponentially.

And in this case, it meant a market clearly trending higher, an industry group outperforming almost everything else this year, and a stock within the industry on the poise of a multi-year breakout.

If this process makes sense to you and you want to learn how to do it yourself, I've made a four video series that you can watch in three hours this week.

It's $99 one-time. No subscriptions. No commitments. And if you buy it and decide you want to join us in January, I'll discount $99 off your first month with us.

You can find more information about the Profits Over Prophets Framework video series here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FbyDlD2T-AGVpzIlk2JtbwUJs-Q7us2Bj5gqNDJVJgM​

I hope you all have a wonderful short week this week.
