Flipping Options: A Bearish Signal for Bitcoin?

6 giorni fa

I'm not a psychic, and I don't have a crystal ball, but here's what I clearly see and can share with you: for several days now, there’s been a flow of options at the 100,000 strike changing hands.
What's crucial is that this option series still has 14 days left before expiration, and there's a high probability it could go in the money, meaning it could exceed the 100,000 mark.
However, these options are being flipped, locking in profits, which suggests that traders aren't expecting further upside or don't believe in it.

The 'strong hands' are selling to the 'weak hands,' indicating that sentiment isn't favoring further growth.
The bottom line: Bitcoin's upward momentum is either facing or has already encountered some serious headwinds.
It's unlikely that we’ll hit 100,000, and if we do, it might just act as a ceiling for any near-term growth
