In the market where the breakthrough fails, it is a very common phenomenon to increase the bullish price. From the perspective of changes in open interest, options due at the end of the month occupy the mainstream of transactions, and the trading volume at par is large, which is a rare situation in this round of bull market. It may be that some of the dormant sell-side strategies are starting to run again. secondary title ETH Historical Volatility 10d 78% 30d 83% 90d 67% 1Y 101% Each standardized period IV: Each standardized period IV: The price of Ethereum did not rise yesterday, but the IV has risen; today the price has fallen, and the IV has also fallen, but it is still at a high level, and there may be more sellers in the next month. 8/18 : 1m 99%,3m 99%,6m 91% The price of Ethereum did not rise yesterday, but the IV has risen; today the price has fallen, and the IV has also fallen, but it is still at a high level, and there may be more sellers in the next month.
