Today's expiring options account for 15% of the total open interest, but the maximum pain point remains unaffected. Influenced by the election, the implied volatility (IV) of short-term options has dropped significantly, market sentiment is optimistic, and the trend in the fourth quarter may continue to be strong.

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, Deribit CEO Luuk Strijers stated: "As the U.S. elections approach, we are observing heightened market expectations, with approximately $3 billion in options open interest set to expire on November 8, including Bitcoin call options with strike prices of $70,000, $75,000, and $80,000, indicating relatively strong bullish sentiment."

ChainCatcher news, Greeks.live researcher Adam posted on social media that as the U.S. election approaches, various statistical channels show Trump leading in the competition, but there remains significant uncertainty surrounding the U.S. election.Datalab options data shows that the at-the-money implied volatility (IV) for BTC during election week is 57%, while the at-the-money IV for the week before the election is only 47%, indicating a 10% IV differential for the election.The current term structure also reflects an implied market view: the market does not expect significant volatility before the election concludes. Market trading volume supports this, as even with a good upward trend this week, large players are reluctant to bet on further increases.

ChainCatcher news, according to data from Greeks.live, 18,000 BTC options are expiring, with a Put Call Ratio of 0.91, and the maximum pain point at $62,000, with a notional value of $1.1 billion. 212,000 ETH options are expiring, with a Put Call Ratio of 0.4, and the maximum pain point at $2,450, with a notional value of $510 million.Cryptocurrency remains weak, with fierce competition around the key level of $60,000, and ETH is also near the long-term support line of $2,300. A market reversal could happen at any moment. The market performance in the first two weeks of this fourth quarter has been poor, and the options market is also relatively sluggish, with the current open interest in options having fallen to a new low since 2023.However, a sluggish market also breeds new trading opportunities. The at-the-money implied volatility (IV) for BTC on November 8 is only 50%, making it very suitable for building some medium to long-term bullish positions at low levels. This week, large bullish trades are gradually becoming active, and there is a high possibility of market movement around the U.S. elections.

Even in the overall rally of Hong Kong stocks, blockchain stocks are in a downward trend, reflecting the weakness of the cryptocurrency market. According to historical data, the fourth quarter generally has a good market performance, and the current sluggish market is a good time to build positions, with low levels suitable for establishing some medium to long-term bullish positions. Implied Volatility (IV) for all major maturities is at the average level of the past year, and before the U.S. elections conclude, IV still has support. The last two weeks will be a good opportunity to position for the fourth quarter.

The options data clearly shows the overall market weakness, as the recent decline in the maximum pain point has not kept pace with the price drop. The implied volatility for major expirations has increased, and as the U.S. elections approach, the IV spike on October 8 is gradually being smoothed out. Last week, we mentioned that trading data from previous years shows that September is generally a bit dull, but the market seems overly pessimistic. We are more inclined to believe that there will be a bull market by the end of the year.
