Bitcoin (BTC) traders are ready for termination of $ 8.8 billion options at the end of the year, on December 26 at 8:00 am on the UTC. The price of more than $ 1 billion will be activated in bitcoin options if the price exceeds $ 200,000. But is it an indication that traders are experiencing 72% Rali?
Call dominates, but bitcoin blow is comfortable with $ 120K
Currently, the total open interest for calls (buy) options is $ 6.45 billion, which inserts $ 2.36 billion (selling) option trail. This indicates a clear advantage for data call options, when the recession traders appear to be some comfortable with the remaining bill $ 120,000.
In some call options, the strike price is set to $ 170,000 or high level and will end until the bitcoin receives 46% from its current level. In fact, if BTC trades near $ 116,500 on 26 December, a call open interest of only $ 878 million will be finished.
Professional traders often use extremely rapid call options as part of strategies that do not give December on December 70% of December.
Such a strategy, buying $ 200,000 December call in call diagonal proliferation and selling $ 200,000 calls with the end of the first, usually in October.
If the BTC increases $ 146,000 by 31 October, this setup is the highest, causing a long-deta call to the epolec, which makes the short-term call useless.
However, BTC prices above $ 200,000 can actually hurt this strategy. The maximum potential loss is BTC 0.005 (approximately $ 585 at current prices), which is the maximum profit BTC 0.0665 (about $ 7,750).
Another example is the “inverted call butterfly”, including buying a $ 140,000 call, selling two $ 160,000 calls and buying a $ 200,000 call with readers.
This situation is the highest if BTC nets land near $ 160,000 on December 26, BTC 0.112 (around $ 13,050). However, there was a loss when BTC overtook $ 178,500. Nevertheless, a call cap of $ 200,000 helps in potential losses. In this case, the maximum loss is 0.109 BTC, or approximately $ 12,700.
$ 900m put option target $ 50 – $ 80k in bitcoin
A large -scale open interest dos in $ 200,000 call options does not mean that traders hope that bitcoin expects to reach that level. In fact, in put options, around $ 900 million is occupied between $ 50,000 and $ 80,000 for the end of December, showing that the recession bets are also playing, even if they take low ODS.
To clarify the market spirit, the price of $ 140,000 calls is currently around BTC 0.051 (approximately $ 5,940), which is 21% probability based on the black-tied model. Meanwhile, $ 200,000 call trade at BTC 0.007 (approximately $ 814) shows a vested possibility below 3%.
These aggressive attacks may be in the headlines, but the data tells a different story. Traders are not betting the field on 72% Rali. Instead, they are using far-off calls as equipment with strategies that offer limited risk and take advantage of the reverse.
Unlike bitcoin options, how, BTC Prime, which receives $ 200,000 this year, is more than 13%, according to polymerkets.
