According to a report by Odaily Planet Daily, Adam, a researcher at Greeks.live, stated on the X platform that 20,000 Bitcoin options expired on August 14th, with a put-call ratio of 0.84, a maximum price threshold of $64,000, and a notional value of $1.29 billion. 96,000 ETH options expired, with a put-call ratio of 0.95, a maximum price threshold of $1,900, and a notional value of $180 million. Bitcoin continued to fluctuate around $64,000 this week, with realized volatility (RV) continuing to decline. RV fell to 25%, a record low, breaking through three previous lows from late October, late January, and early June. Implied volatility (IV) also continued to decline, currently at levels seen in early October of last year, indicating compressed market sentiment. Looking at other major options data, 6% of options expired this week, with a significant decrease in open interest, mainly due to the shift from bottom-fishing last week to a wait-and-see approach. Call option open interest has decreased significantly, the Bitcoin put/call ratio has returned to normal levels, and put option open interest has only decreased slightly. Gex's bullish and bearish options are further diversified, indicating a generally cautious market. The cryptocurrency market has experienced a 10-month bear market, with poor performance in the third quarter, continued selling pressure from US investors, and frequent security incidents. Adam from Greeks.live Research Institute suggests that currently, positioning oneself with some out-of-the-money options is a good strategy.
