Deribit Options Market Broadcast: 0718 - Regular Phenomena
As mentioned in the previous broadcast, it has become a regular phenomenon that IV falls from Thursday to Friday due to early shifting of positions on Thursday. Another interesting regular phenomenon is that the trading volume on Friday will be significantly higher than that on weekends, and IV will rise slightly from weekends onwards. Of course, these are all based on the fact that the price of Bitcoin has not fluctuated much recently. Observing the regularity of the market will make the transaction more interesting, but it is also easy to be deceived by the illusion of the market.

7/16:1m -12.1%, 3m -3.1%, 6m +0.5%
The short-term Skew is as high as 12%. Combined with other indicators, we can see that a large number of traders selling call options is the reason for the high Skew. At this time, we can use PCP synthesis to take advantage. For example, if I want to buy Jul31-9000C, under the current skewness, I can choose to buy Jul31-9000P and do long equivalent futures at the same time.

There is no doubt that some giant whales who hold coins have begun to use options to enhance their income.
