Analysts say the implied volatility of CME’s short-term out-of-the-money Bitcoin put options has increased over the past month as traders anticipate greater price volatility and brace for the possibility of further downside moves.

According to CF Benchmark’s Bitcoin Volatility Index, the implied volatilities of short-term puts and short-term calls were roughly equal in late May, before the recent market downturn, during which time the price of Bitcoin fell by 14%. It fell by more than %. % in the past month. However, CF benchmark analysts are currently observing a significant increase in the implied volatility of short put options compared to their corresponding call options.

“Over the past few weeks, we have seen a larger increase in IV for short-term put options compared to call options, suggesting an increased preference for tactical hedging,” CF Benchmark analysts told The Block.

An increase in the IV of a put option compared to a call option indicates that the trader is expecting greater price movement or increased uncertainty, especially on the downside. “From May 31 to June 24, the IV in 5D puts increased by 13.3%, and from June 7 to June 24, IV in 5D puts increased by 23%,” the analysts added.

However, there has been no dramatic change in strategic positioning for long-term OTM currencies, according to CF Benchmark data. “This means traders continue to look for long-term upside in Bitcoin prices, with IV seen as a short-term sentiment shift,” the analysts added.
