Overall sell on BTC

I don't trade Bitcoin, but there are very large weekly & month end expiry on IBIT at 43.5. These are major put options, which generally implies major support level here.

43.5 coincides with the exact current level of BTCUSD. IBIT is the largest exchange traded fund for Bitcoin as per AUM. The large institutions who trade BTC, they trade it via this fund. If they want to buy Bitcoin, they will go long & vice versa.

See the attached image. Notice the 18447 puts OI on 43.5.

You can find IBIT on Tradingview as well, they don't have the options data though.

What this implies is, the market is (or whoever major is trading it) betting that Bitcoin will not go lower than this level in this week. If this breaks, ofcourse there will be unwinding & it changes. But that is what the current bets are.

This is real liquidity, actual money. You cannot see liquidity on plain charts, on charts you can see support/resistance or supply & demand zones.

Actual data shows where the real liquidity is i.e. where the real orders are. The only way to know this for BTC are the exchange traded funds.

And the next major options barrier below is 40 on IBIT, which would be around 70.5K or the 13th April low on the BTCUSD.

Your views are good just the way you learned them ...overall chart just shows what happens next ...I don't trade with order books just pure Ta or little Fa that if we're bullish Fa can strength long term buys

More options expire dump market I haven't seen options relatively affect trend

I think he was implying liquidity based trading may involve actual order book data available from the exchange.

But liquidity sweeps as in ICT are merely words describing support and resistance. Just rebranding of old concepts. ICT traders have no clue of actual orders hence the word is misnomer when used by ICT traders.

Mind you, even Fundamental analysis requires economic data from proprietary sources like BB Terminal etc.

For most people purely TA would be sufficient, keep it simple.

LOL @ David Wash

Markets are pricing in possible rate hikes soon due to sticky inflation, not cuts. No guarantees though, watch the next FOMC. Stay tuned.

GOLD POSSIBLE MOVES TOMORROW 26

XAUUSD has two possibilities tomorrow MAY 26th 2026. If XAUUSD breaks above 4582 there is likely going to be a continuous surge above 4600.

On the other hand, if It breaks below 4549 there would be a possible bearish trend beyond 4530.

RESULT OF YESTERDAYS OUTLOOK

XAUUSD took the downside and continued down below the 4530 as stated yesterday. 🎉🎉

From the look of this it's likely going to keep going down. Let's keep our eyes on GOLD 👀
