gamma exposure has tripled 👀almost $60m to buy on 1% moves higher (and sell on moves lower) at peak gamma (we’re not quite there, but its in sight), up from $20m earlier in this thread
38k is the new 30k, can she do it?
#btc
on gas through 37k and flows in futures and options are definitively constructive:
- CME Futures OI passed 100k BTC for the first time ever. Nov Basis is trading at roughly 20%
- Implied vols are up across the curve with calls in demand, reflected in higher skew with BTC…

Believe these numbers are outdated and took into account the 17/11 expired options which ofc had significant gamma component.
Correct
@amberdataio
data is $25m.
And, was there anywhere near $50m on the way up and $35m on the way down exclusively from Gamma on today's 37.8k trip?

yep you’re absolutely right tony, i pulled a chart from our asia handover that was pre expiry. yours is more up to date

Kelly, does this indicate a potential squeeze to $38k?
Today, $1.2 Billion worth of BTC Options Expire and the max pain is 36k which now the price has retraced to. Also, there is a Long Liquidation cluster at $35.6k.

Can someone explain what above means in simple terms? Also does anyone have perspective on end of December expiries worth 5.3B with max pain currently at 29k according to Deribit. Is that a magnet or an irrelevant issue?
