- $ 3.04 billion in BTC options run with a maximum pain price of $ 107k and a put/call ratio of 0.95.
- Spot and ETF intake amounted to more than $ 1 billion in three days, but did not succeed in causing a bullish reversal.
Bitcoin [BTC] Spentrowed above $ 100,000 this month and won only 1.29%. With billions on the end of options, the calmness can end soon.
Ambcrypto analysis indicates that although a large decrease is more likely, some investors try to resist downward pressure.
Max Pain for $ 107k – but BTC is already under
About $ 3.04 billion in BTC options will end today, with a well/call ratio of 0.95 and a maximum pain price of $ 107,000.
A put-call ratio under 1, as in this case, suggests that more traders buy buy (call) positions in the market.

However, the price of Bitcoin was exchanged far below this maximum pain level at $ 104,682, creating a considerable gap.
This means that traders who dominate a large part of the fictional value will probably register large losses, while short sellers have a profit.
Such a scenario forces traders to open more short positions to cover themselves against losses, while others can choose to make a profit.
Ambcrypto analysis confirms that this trend has already begun. Options Open Interest (OI) has risen considerably in the last 24 hours.
OI has risen by 3.88% to $ 46.06 billion, indicating that more contracts are being opened. At the same time, the trade volume has risen to $ 7.06 billion – an increase of 107.64%.

This increase in both statistics, amid a falling price and $ 3.04 billion in contracts that are about to expire, suggests that more traders tend to sell.
$ 422 million liquidated!
The Bearish sentiment is also clear in the Futuresmarkt, which reflects the option market to a certain extent. In this case the number of sellers has increased.
Liquidation data was one -sided. Longs took a hit of $ 422.89 million more than 24 hours, while Shorts lost only $ 28.63 million.

Moreover, the long/short ratio was 0.929 – immediately lower than 1, which confirmed that sellers had control.
Can traditional and spot investors save Bitcoin?
Interesting is that Spot investors do not collapse. $ 150.70 million in BTC flowing In exchanges for 24 hours, while weekly accumulation $ 651 million exceeded.

Traditional investors also make movements.
At the time of writing, $ 86 million was purchased from Bitcoin in various Bitcoin Spot ETFs, which contributed to a cumulative $ 982 million in purchases in the past three days.
These large-scale buy-ins usually affect market sentiment positively and can ultimately lead to an offer.
A significant reversal of the market – especially a recovery of $ 3,000 in Bitcoin’s price – seems unlikely before the options expire.
If this reversal does not occur, Bitcoin will probably slide even lower.
