Approximately $7.7 billion worth of Bitcoin and Ethereum options are set to expire today, leading to potential volatility in the crypto market. The expiration includes 89,037 Bitcoin options contracts and 719,130 Ethereum contracts. Traders are analyzing the put-to-call ratios to gauge market sentiment, with Bitcoin indicating a relatively balanced market and Ethereum reflecting strong bullish sentiment. The maximum pain points for both Bitcoin and Ethereum suggest that prices may hover around critical levels. Analysts expect continued volatility as traders reposition themselves for the fourth quarter, which is historically a strong period for crypto assets. However, traders are advised to remain cautious as options expiration often leads to short-term market instability. The outcome of this major options expiry will set the tone for the coming weeks.
