Ethereum (ETH) is showing a notable pattern in the options market. According to data from Deribit, a leading platform for cryptocurrency futures and options trading, there is a significant concentration of call options on ETH around the $4,000 strike price for both June and September expirations.

Options traders predict Ethereum $4,000.

The accumulation of ETH call options centered around $4,000 indicates the concentrated expectation of traders that the price of Ethereum could rise above $4,000 by this date.

For context, an option is a financial derivative that gives the buyer the right (but not the obligation) to buy (in the case of a call option) or sell (in the case of a put option) an underlying asset at a predetermined price on or before a certain date.

In particular, according to charts from the cryptocurrency futures and options trading platform, the $4,000 ETH strike price emerged as the dominant player in the ETH options trading landscape, outperforming other strike prices for the June and September expirations.

It is worth noting that these patterns indicate market sentiment and can influence your trading strategy. In this case, the pattern means that most options traders are likely bullish on Ethereum, expecting its value to increase significantly.

Moreover, this trend may cause fundamental traders to reconsider their positions on Ethereum, potentially changing their outlook to expect an upward trajectory in the asset’s performance.

Factors Affecting $4,000 ETH Option Strike Price

The clustering of Ethereum call options with a $4,000 strike price appears to be influenced by several factors, including the potential approval of a spot Ethereum exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the United States. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

As Jag Kooner, Head of Derivatives at Bitfinex observed, with the deadline for a final decision on these spot ETF applications set for May 23, traders appear to be positioning Ethereum options contracts in hopes of a favorable outcome.

However, Deribit Chief Commercial Officer Luuk Strijers cautioned against drawing any firm “conclusions” about the link between derivatives markets and Ethereum spot ETF approval expectations.

Strijers notes that a higher “June skew” means “more expensive calls,” but it’s difficult to pinpoint its expected correlation with spot ETF news or the upcoming Bitcoin halving.

Meanwhile, Altcoin Daily cryptocurrency analysts recently outlined three key factors that could push the price of Ethereum to $4,000. Among these factors, expectations and possible approval of Ethereum spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) stood out as a key catalyst.

Ethereum futures are already gaining recognition globally, but analysts emphasize that the approval of these spot ETFs could trigger a significant long-term price rally for Ethereum.

Despite these contrasting ETH views, ETH is currently trading at $2,495 and is up 7.7% over the past week and 1.9% over the past 24 hours.
