BTC & ETH $5.9B Options Expiry: Volatility Risk Today
Today $5.9 billion of Bitcoin and Ethereum options expire, which often raises intraday volatility and the risk of sharp directional moves. I expect increased chop and potential short- or long-squeezes around key strikes.
I'm advising caution with highly leveraged open positions — consider reducing leverage, tightening stops, or temporarily trimming exposure until settlement risk subsides.
Analysis
Recommendation
Watch the market closely and avoid adding high-leverage exposure; reduce position size or use protective stops/hedges until post-expiry volatility settles.
