BTC and ETH Options Set to Expire : A Major Challenge for Traders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This Friday, crypto investors face a major event with the expiration of nearly $15 billion<\/strong> in options on BTC<\/a><\/strong> and ETH<\/a><\/strong>. This deadline will undeniably shape price dynamics in the coming days, offering both opportunities and risks<\/strong> for seasoned traders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Options expiry day: $14.9B BTC & ETH options expire today.

BTC: $12.25B, max pain $112K
ETH: $2.64B, max pain $2,800

This explains the downside volatility as MMs push prices to max pain.

Once expiry\u2019s done, I expect the pump to resume.
