ETH Options Expiry Bearish Positioning
The upcoming options expiry and high put/call ratio suggest bearish sentiment for Ethereum.
Too little corroboration in the last 3 days to call a trend (5 articles). Watching for it to gain traction.
Still mostly niche and specialist coverage — not yet picked up broadly by mainstream press.
"Over 137K ETH options with a notional value of $233 million are set to expire on Deribit, with a put-call ratio of 1.03. This slightly bearish put-call ratio indicates traders expect further downside."
"This indicates Ethereum price will continue to remain under pressure after the options expiry."
"Ethereum put volume has also surpassed call volume in the past 24 hours, with a put/call ratio of 1.15. Traders are targeting $2150 and $2100 strike prices."
"However, the put volume has increased significantly in the last 24 hours, with the put/call ratio bearish at 1.29."
"The put/call ratio is 1.02, indicating bearish sentiment among traders amid sudden price swings and a sharp drop in cryptocurrency market sentiment from 26 to 11 today."
