Looking at the #Bitcoin daily chart, we see that the price has fallen back into the sideways channel it’s been in since early December.
The 21 day Exponential Moving Average was acting as support until the price sliced through it yesterday. :knife::chart_with_downwards_trend:
Now the 50 day Moving Average looks to be giving some support at 42,500.
If you wanted to express the opinion that the price will stay above the 50 day MA in the short term (and with 1 day at-the-money IV having fallen down to 33), you could buy a relatively inexpensive call spread.

The market’s future expectation of volatility is now lower post ETF, and #Bitcoin at-the-money IV’s have been crushed.
Buying vol has become a lot cheaper. 🤑
Looking at the price chart, we see the BTC has bounced off the bottom of the sideways channel it’s (mostly) been in since early December. 📉📈
If you think the bounce will hold over the next 2 days, you could buy an ATM short duration call spread that gives you a risk/reward profile of 2:1.

#Bitcoin has been holding around 52,000 for several days.
Looking at the charts, we see that this area acted as resistance in September and December 2021. 📉
We also know that US markets will be closed on Monday in observance of a holiday, and BTC ETF inflows won’t resume until Tuesday. 🤔
Based on this information, if we believe BTC will stay below 52,000 for the next few days, we could either:
Sell a 2-day call spread or buy a 2-day put spread.
Here’s an example of the short call spread on DeVol:

#Bitcoin is knocking on new all time highs! 📈
On the new episode of Crypto Options Action, Jordan & JC study the price charts and vol surface in order to profit from the volatility.
The team thinks a breakout to new highs is less likely to happen over the weekend due to the lack of buying pressure from the spot ETF over the weekend, and the fact that in previous cycles BTC has taken a minimum of a few weeks to make new highs.
The 2 day implied vol on the DeVol platform is currently lower than on other platforms, which means buying options is cheaper than it should be.
Given this info, and the fact that BTC could still break out with conviction at any moment, they decide to execute a long butterfly spread that expires on 03/10.
