Bitcoin Next MoveCME:BTC1! CRYPTOCAP:BTC needs to hold 45.6k for bullish sentiment to challenge all time highs. Currently CRYPTOCAP:BTC has broken GETTEX:52K and if a retest hold's at 48.5k this would be extremely bullish for Targets to 58k, 65k and ATH 69355. While this is the larger picture, there are moves on smaller time frames allowing entry for trades or building positions. Should support zones not hold, shorting CRYPTOCAP:BTC to areas of value is an option but you need to be slick on entries via multi-time frame analysis. If you appreciate my efforts, spend half a second and give me a Boost! Thanks!! Always having Plan A and Plan B scenarios so we can react once the markets provide an opportunity to execute our edge.

Extracting Arbitrage Yields In Bitcoin Carry TradeBitcoin is known as digital gold. It is treasured as an investment asset. Much like the famous yellow metal, bitcoin (“BTC”) does not offer income through dividends or interest. This poses a challenge for investors seeking regular cashflows and income. One strategy that skilled investors use to turn BTC into an income generating asset is the cash and carry trade (“carry trade”). This paper describes mechanics of carry trade and the attendant risks. It also highlights that the introduction of spot ETFs has created a secure infrastructure for harvesting carry yields using a regulated platforms such as the CME. INTRODUCTION TO THE CARRY TRADE The carry trade is an arbitrage strategy that benefits from the differences in futures and spot price of an asset. It is a delta neutral strategy. In other words, the returns are not price dependent once the carry trade is profitably set up. To illustrate, consider the forward curve of CME Bitcoin futures which shows futures prices at different expiries. Bitcoin futures with later expiries trade at a premium to near term ones and this type of market structure is referred to as contango. In a trade that involves simultaneous acquisition of BTC and selling a BTC futures contract expiring later, investors can lock in the price difference as profits. Once established, this trade’s profit is unaffected by price moves enabling investors to harvest carry yield at the futures expiry. The pay-off from this trade is driven by convergence of futures and spot prices. Convergence is the movement of a futures price closer to spot price at expiry. Once futures and spot price are sufficiently close, the trade can be unwound by simultaneously exiting both positions. For CME Bitcoin and Micro Bitcoin futures, convergence occurs because the futures contracts settle to a robust price benchmark known as the CF Bitcoin Reference Rate (“BRR”) which includes price quotes from major crypto exchanges. BTC FUTURES CONTANGO TERM STRUCTURE AND PREVALANCE OF CARRY TRADE Carry trades can be executed in both contango and backwardation term structures. While the carry trade can technically be executed in backwardation (where later expiries are cheaper), doing so involves high borrowing costs for the short spot leg. Hence, BTC’s contango term structure is beneficial for extracting arbitrage yields from carry trade. Factors driving BTC contango term structure are multi-faceted. Simply put, during bull runs, investors anticipate higher prices for contracts maturing later. Furthermore, high demand for spot BTC and limited availability on the sell-side can exacerbate forward premiums. Additional factors resulting in contango include cost of funds, insurance premiums, and custodial charges that are higher for later expiries, and a convenience yield of holding BTC. Convenience yield represents returns from holding BTC through activities such as lending. BTC futures term structure has shown both contango and backwardation during different periods. Current term structure indicates bullish sentiment fuelled by spot BTC approval in January and the next halving event expected in April. Term structure shifts can result in outsized returns at times. Notably, the switch from contango to backwardation can offer outsized returns on the carry trade, exceeding the difference between futures and spot price as observed at trade inception. The carry trade has been a popular strategy, especially during periods of significant volatility and during bull markets when BTC contango structure widens. Even sell-offs provide compelling trading opportunities as the carry trade is directionally neutral. Carry trades have lower risk relative to an outright long position. For reference , during 2021, LedgerPrime’s quant fund was able to beat BTC returns using, among others, the carry trade during a large selloff. RISKS OF THE CARRY TRADE The carry trade neutralises market risk but is still subject to counterparty risks and liquidity risks when spreads diverge and tear. Largest risk factors associated with the carry trade is the counterparty risk . While CME futures are regulated by the CFTC, spot crypto exchanges are not subject to similar regulations. This poses significant risk for investors if they opt to hold their BTC on such unregulated exchanges. Such risks arising from trading on unregulated platforms is most exemplified by the collapse of FTX. FTX was a popular exchange for executing carry trades as it offered dated futures, perps, and spot BTC on its platform. The dramatic collapse of FTX highlighted counterparty risk as a major concern. Self-custody of spot BTC has its own risks including transfer costs and cybersecurity risks. Another risk factor is early liquidation. As the futures leg of the trade is a short position, where prices rally sharply, the short position may be at risk of liquidation despite a proportional gain on the long leg of the carry trade. SPOT BTC ETF HELPS REDUCE COUNTERPARTY RISKS The rollout of spot BTC ETFs reduces counterparty risk. Unlike unregulated crypto exchanges, spot ETFs are regulated by the SEC, listed on regulated exchanges with investor protection. With both the futures and spot leg now available through regulated platforms, investors have access to secure infrastructure for executing the carry trade. The table below provides details of approved spot ETFs including AUM, expense ratio, and the benchmark index. Carry trade using spot ETFs with CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate (CME BRR) enables greater precision in extracting arbitrage yields. Seven of the eleven approved spot BTC ETFs use the CME BRR. Still, there are downside to using spot ETFs for long BTC exposure in carry trades. For one, ETFs are only tradeable during market hours (9:30AM to 4:00PM US Eastern Time not including extended trading hours) whereas cryptocurrency exchanges and even CME futures trade for longer hours. Moreover, expense ratios and premium/discount to NAV for ETFs will erode already thin profits. Spot BTC ETFs are currently offering discounts on expense ratio for a fixed period. CARRY TRADE ILLUSTRATION To illustrate a hypothetical carry trade, consider the following setup comprising long BITB ETF and short CME Bitcoin futures (BTCH2024). BITB references the same CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate as CME futures and its premium/discount of -0.07% (as of 09/Feb) offers a beneficial entry point for this trade. Moreover, the premium/discount on the ETF has been tight. Source: Bitwise The premium for MBTH2024 over spot reference rate as of close on 9/Feb was 2.83%. Taking seven basis point discount to NAV, this results in total return of 2.90% over 48 days resulting in an annualized arbitrage return of 22%. As the trade is required to be directionally neutral, notional value on both legs needs to be balanced. CME Micro Bitcoin futures (“MBT”) offers exposure to 0.1 BTC. Notional on short BTCH2024 futures leg: 0.1 BTC As of close 09/Feb, BITB market price: USD 25.95 CME CF Benchmark BTC price: USD 47,614 Each share of BITB offers exposure to 0.000545 BTC 184 shares of BITB provide exposure to 0.000545 x 184 = 0.100280 BTC The payoff from the trade consisting of 184 x long BITB and 1 x short MBTH2024 would be 2.9% of notional value = 2.9% x (0.1 x 47,614 USD/BTC) = USD 138. The trade requires margin of USD 980 on the short futures leg and notional of USD 4,775 on the long leg for a total capital requirement of USD 5,755 (as of Feb 2023) which translates into ROI of 2.4%. Still, as mentioned, liquidation risk remains a concern. Hence, it is prudent to maintain higher margin on the short futures leg which would lower the ROI. Note that timing this trade better can improve the odds and in case Bitcoin’s term structure switches from contango to backwardation, payoff would be higher.

🔒Bitcoin Breakout:The 5 Benefits Of Using Bitcoin 💰💸Bitcoin, a decentralized digital currency, offers several benefits that have contributed to its popularity and adoption. Here are five key advantages of using Bitcoin: 1. Decentralization and Security: Bitcoin operates on a decentralized network, meaning it is not controlled by any single government, institution, or individual. This decentralization reduces the risk of censorship, government interference, or manipulation. The use of blockchain technology ensures the security of transactions through cryptographic techniques, making it highly resistant to fraud and hacking. 2. Global Accessibility: Bitcoin transactions can be conducted globally, providing financial services to people who may not have access to traditional banking systems. Anyone with an internet connection and a compatible device can send and receive Bitcoin, promoting financial inclusion and accessibility to a borderless financial system. 3. Limited Supply and Deflationary Nature: Bitcoin has a capped supply of 21 million coins, creating scarcity and limiting inflationary pressures. This fixed supply is programmed into its protocol, making it resistant to manipulation by governments or central banks. This scarcity is often cited as a feature that can potentially preserve the value of Bitcoin over time. 4. Reduced Transaction Costs: Bitcoin transactions typically have lower fees compared to traditional financial systems, especially for international transfers. Traditional banking and payment systems may involve intermediary banks, currency conversion fees, and transaction delays, which can be mitigated by using Bitcoin for peer-to-peer transactions. 5. Financial Privacy: While Bitcoin transactions are recorded on a public ledger called the blockchain, they are pseudonymous and do not directly reveal the identities of the parties involved. Users have greater control over their financial information, reducing the risk of identity theft and protecting their privacy compared to traditional banking systems where personal information is often required for transactions. It's important to note that while Bitcoin offers these advantages, it also faces challenges and criticisms, such as price volatility, regulatory uncertainty, and environmental concerns related to energy consumption in the mining process. Individuals should carefully consider these factors and conduct thorough research before engaging in Bitcoin transactions. Disclaimer: The information provided here is for informational purposes only and should not be considered as financial or investment advice. Cryptocurrency investments, including Bitcoin, carry inherent risks, and individuals should conduct their own research and seek professional advice before making any financial decisions.

What does the arrival of Spot Bitcoin ETFs mean for US investorsAfter a long journey, the first spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) were approved in the United States of America. This is the latest step on the path to bitcoin, and digital assets more generally, becoming mainstream. To help clarify how this chain of events unfolded, and where the story could go next, this is an edited summary of a discussion with Ryan Louvar, Chief Legal Officer at WisdomTree, which took place in full on the Crypto Clarified podcast1. The main points covered were: The main obstacles that had to be overcome for approval The reasons why a spot bitcoin ETF is a positive for investors and digital assets’ place in a portfolio as a diversifier What to expect in terms of uptake over different timeframes What to expect in the near future as the asset class becomes more mainstream Benjamin Dean (BD): Ryan, happy bitcoin spot ETF effective date to you. Ryan Louvar (RL): It’s a super exciting day. Even going back six months ago, I can’t say I was on the optimist side. But seeing the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) grant an effective registration statement to allow bitcoin ETFs, as well as the listings, is great. Obstacles to overcome BD: What were those final obstacles that had to be overcome and how have almost a dozen different issuers had their applications approved and become effective? RL: I was on a panel at Bitcoin 2021 with a couple of other ETF issuers. We were asked to predict if we thought that 2021 would be the year. There was some optimism because the new chairman of the SEC, Gary Gensler, had spoken at MIT about this topic. However, there were hurdles before through that prior SEC administration. I said that there was a decent chance 2021 would be the year. But we have a new SEC administration now, and the similar denials continued. The rationale was that there just aren’t enough protective mechanisms in place to create a market that would be resistant to fraud and manipulation. Ultimately, the focus was on the spot bitcoin market, and the SEC said there needs to be a regulated spot bitcoin market of sufficient size to be able to trade. This was really against historical precedent because if you think about other spot markets like gold in particular, those ETFs had been approved and there isn’t a regulated gold market, certainly not one overseen by the SEC, and not one as had been described by the SEC as a requirement. A watershed moment occurred when the SEC allowed futures ETFs, including bitcoin futures ETFs. They allowed a percentage of the underlying exposure to be futures and then allowed 100% futures exposure. Even at that point, WisdomTree was the first ETF to have any bitcoin futures exposure, with under 5% in one of our US-listed ETFs. The thought was that we were right there, almost at the finish line to then have a spot ETF. We chose at the time to have limited exposure because we thought that it had the potential to be a diversifier in a portfolio. We chose not to launch a 100% bitcoin futures product just because of the potential issues in a 100% bitcoin futures product, such as contango and not tracking the price of bitcoin. We were very steadfast in our belief that a spot bitcoin product was the best execution for investors seeking exposure to the spot price of bitcoin. We leveraged our experience in Europe where we have a successful crypto exchange-traded product (ETP) range including a spot bitcoin ETP. There was really no action from the SEC until they got sued by Grayscale. There was a lawsuit from Grayscale, and they said that the SEC’s decision here, the denials, were just arbitrary and capricious. A court agreed with them. It’s not often that the SEC loses. The court made it possible for the SEC to essentially include additional information for their decision. Based upon the past ten years, I thought that the SEC would continue to deny an approval and produce additional reasons for it. Ultimately, they had until 10 January to make that decision. Going back just three months ago, it wasn’t clear what path the SEC was going to take. It only became clear once the SEC started to comment on the prospectuses after a few years of silence, that cleared the way for progress. Then you saw ETF issuers filing updated S-1 type of registration statements that include the prospectus. This was really a couple of months ago. Then you saw a flurry of activity from the regulatory side, updated prospectuses every couple of weeks, then updated prospectuses every couple of days, to now, we are launching this morning. Yes, that’s the history, it’s hard to believe. It’s really been truly historic. I mean, just the historical, call it a roller coaster ride. Today we’re excited to be an issuer launching a spot bitcoin ETF, but it’s also historic to have all the other issuers launching as well. Our experience in ETFs both in Europe and digital assets is going to be a differentiator for us. It will be an interesting few months for sure. Role in a portfolio as a potential diversifier BD: Do you have any views or thoughts around how one should conceive the coming days, months, and years? What does success look like? RL: If we look back on the birth of the US ETF industry with the SPDR, it took a couple of years for the SPDR to really take off and gain traction. Now it’s over 20 years old, and I think it’s over $300 billion at this point. I think we’ll see the same with bitcoin, in taking time to fully gain traction. Going back a couple of years, financial advisors told us they have clients who’d like to have at least a portion of their portfolio in an asset that can serve as a diversifier. It’s got to be the right client as bitcoin is a volatile asset, so there’s risk there. Bitcoin can certainly serve its place in the right client’s portfolio. Those advisors will now be trying to work with their clients to understand the full financial picture. Their client might say, “By the way, I have bitcoin as well and it’s sitting in my personal wallets or on this third-party platform or wherever.” So, really, by having the vehicle that's suited to many investors in the ETF, it will really help from a financial advisory standpoint as well as a general investor standpoint to have that access. The other thing is the transparency. ETFs have to disclose their holdings, so the amount of bitcoin a spot ETF holds will be available on the issuer website every day. Holding bitcoin in your own wallet can have some merit for a lot of people, but many don’t understand that mechanism or don’t want to. An ETF is a wrapper they do understand, and it comes with traditional third-party oversight from a trusted organisation like WisdomTree. It’s bringing a lot to the table but like any new asset, I think it’s going to take time for the marketplace to really absorb it. Certainly, a lot of the traditional ETF platforms are going to have to conduct diligence. A lot of that requires some track record, six months in some cases for some assets. I think there will be demand, but it’s a journey. Today’s just the beginning. It’s not dissimilar to a floating rate Treasury ETF. Treasuries are renowned for being plain vanilla, but that took a little while to gain a bit of traction. Bitcoin is a very different asset to treasuries in terms of risk profile, but it can potentially have its place. What could uptake look like in the near term? BD: It’s an interesting moment in the United States because the couple of years really, have been negative and so acrimonious. You go to Asia or Latin America and people don’t have the same hangups. But in the US, it has been different. RL: I was surprised when I travelled to many Asian countries over the summer and saw that bitcoin is widely available and used as a currency. Here in the US, being US-centric, we sometimes lose that perspective. We’re getting used to inflation in the US but not hyperinflation. So, it’s a great point that we don’t see in the US much, so it surprised me during my travels abroad. Where does the digital asset industry go from here BD: Looking at the US, what does this round of approvals mean for the digital asset industry? What do you see coming forward? RL: I think the next turning point is Ether, the second largest cryptocurrency. There are now ETFs that hold Ethereum futures. So, if you think about the history, ETFs were first allowed by the SEC to hold bitcoin futures and then some months later, Ether futures. I do think those will be the next that might get attention. To me, the biggest thing is that bitcoin and digital assets more broadly are being talked about as investable assets. For us at WisdomTree it’s important because we’re not only focused on ETFs, which has been our historical focus, we’re also bringing a direct-to-retail platform to investors in the US. Right now, they can directly access bitcoin via an app on their phone. They can directly access Ether, SEC-registered blockchain-enabled mutual funds and work with those in one portfolio. So, I think having these avenues and bringing more attention to the asset class is only going to put a spotlight on how investors might be able to think about this new asset class and bitcoin in particular.

🅱️ Lower High Daily TF Confirmed | Last Chance!Today Bitcoin closed the day at 47,770, which is the highest close (moving up) since March 2022, almost two years ago. ➖ The daily session wicked to hit as high as 48,505 —February 9, 2024. ➖ January 11, 2024 —Bitcoin peaked at 49,435 on a wick, with the session closing at 46,350. I will not go into all the details but the dynamic between Bitcoin's price, the trading volume and RSI all point toward the end of this current move. We can refer to this type of move in several ways: A "dead-cat-bounce," a "pull-back," wave b of a Zig-zag, etc. The truth is the chart is screaming SHORT! 👉 The minimum target for this correction is set in the 30,000 - 32,000 price range. 👉 My projected bottom target goes much lower, between 22,000 and 26,000. Remember to do your own research. You are appreciated. Your support is appreciated. Thank you for reading. Namaste.

Gap closed on Bitcoin futures.With a candle that can be seen as a hammer, the price closed the gap by taking buy orders that were in the majority compared to sells, the candle is evident. In the related analysis I had written that it would be a very useful level, given that gaps often work well as supports or resistances, in this case it has become a very useful support, a perforation of the minimum of this candle would be a sign of weakness, but let's see better the context in which we find ourselves. At this moment the price of btc is correcting in the medium term (2/3 months), therefore faced with a movement of approximately 88 days, a correction could occur (which has drawn a new high) linked to this cycle, of course if if the scenario changes, the session count would also change. So far the price is moving higher and there is no reason to think otherwise, so my bullish hypothesis or scenario continues to be useful in understanding where we are now. Possible even very violent increases could appear before long, we are at the end of this correction which has not yet given the final blow, the classic strong decline, unless it was this weekly candle which we can call hammer, the last decline of the correction. Now we need caution and above all trust in the trend.

Trading Bitcoin FuturesTo keep actively trading Bitcoin short... I am watching and trading Bitcoin futures. This morning there was a 30 minute timeframe Spike right at the level I have been watching since after the ETF launch: the 50% Retracement of the "Sell the News" phase. I am looking for price to hold this level as Resistance and retrace at least back to 41000 in short time. Higher Timeframe Update: The area of Resistance that is the 50% of the ETF Selloff is where Bitcoin has retraced to over the last week. On Monday 1/22 I was able to hedge my Puts by selling shorter dated Puts against them to hedge and offset theta. I closed them yesterday. Broadly, Bitcoin is still in this battle zone from the ATH to the November 22 low. Mainstream Adoption Back in the old days... Bitcoin was best traded spot on margin on exchanges. Now, all the reputable exchanges are KYC and the new ones popping up would never fool an old timer like me into putting money there. I have even received spam here on Tradingview from exchange reps trying to get me to do affiliate programs. No, never. Bitcoin is now a heavily traded asset with countless derivatives. It is truly mainstream.

Market overview: China finally introduces new stimulus measuresMarket overview: China finally introduces new stimulus measures. New rises expected for oil? Welcome to our weekly market overview. My column focuses on analyzing the most promising stocks and futures contracts in today's financial markets. Let's discover together the most attractive investment opportunities and how to make the most of them. We will also analyze the general macroeconomic situation and I will provide information on my open positions to share my views and investment strategies. Macroeconomics Despite some disappointments in quarterly results, there is a positive mood for stock markets. Wall Street continued to reach new highs, buoyed by the stability of the U.S. economy and the prospect of an upcoming interest rate cut. Europe is enjoying the benefits of decelerating inflation and good performance by large companies, while Asia is catching up after the announcement of new support measures in China. The ECB held a meeting but was completely eclipsed by data on U.S. economic activity. Although the central bank kept rates and its rhetoric unchanged, U.S. GDP rose 3.3 percent in the fourth quarter, exceeding forecasts of 2 percent. This suggests that the economy may have a soft landing, as also indicated by the U.S. manufacturing and services PMIs that have returned to the expansion zone. In addition, the risk of recession is easing further. The Future S&P 500 Mar 2024 reached new all-time highs and the yield on the 10-year U.S. bond reached a low from 4.23/25 percent. Stocks Highlighted this week are Netflix Inc and Tesla Inc. Netflix overcame market doubts about its growth. The streaming giant reported a 12.5 percent increase in revenues for the quarter thanks to growth in the number of subscribers to 260 million (+12.8 percent). The company reported operating income of $1.49 billion, nearly tripling that of the previous year, and net income exploded from $55 million to $938 million. However, Netflix's stock price is currently very high, so I do not recommend buying at these levels. Tesla is facing several obstacles at the moment. The group reported lower-than-expected fourth quarter results, with lower-than-expected sales growth and an annual decline in non-GAAP earnings. The recall of 200,000 vehicles in the United States due to a software problem with rearview mirrors is just the latest blow to the company after a major recall just two months ago. In addition, management's comments about profitability in 2024 and forecasts of a further decline in profitability have made the situation worse. In the near future, we may see a price decrease of up to 20 percent. Futures Futures in the energy and fossil fuel sector are performing well. Future Crude Oil WTI - Mar 2024 prices have been supported by encouraging economic data and ongoing Red Sea issues. Brent passed the $80 per barrel mark, while the U.S. economy grew faster than expected in the fourth quarter. This was also confirmed by January PMIs, which exceeded economists' expectations. In addition, U.S. weekly inventories fell significantly from consensus (-9.2 million instead of -1.2 million), providing further support for rising prices. Due to recent tensions in the Red Sea, the price of crude oil, could exceed $80. The Natural Gas Future - U.S. Mar 2024 are trading around $2.09/MMBtu with a weekly increase of 4.4 percent, indicating a slight recovery from the previous 24 percent slump. According to the most recent government data, U.S. utilities withdrew 326 billion cubic feet of natural gas from storage facilities last week, exceeding market expectations of 322 bcf. This was the highest weekly withdrawal since February 2021 due to strong gas demand caused by extreme cold weather. Although storage levels are decreasing, they still remain above the seasonal average of 5.2 percent. Heating demand is expected to be low in the coming weeks due to higher-than-average temperatures until at least Feb. 7. This situation makes optimistic forecasts for natural gas in the near future difficult. We may also see new lows in prices during this quarter, possibly falling as low as $1.60. The value of Future Gold - Apr 2024 is stable at 2020 USD, pending the Fed's rate cut. Personally, I do not expect the Fed to cut its interest rate in the short term, so I maintain a bearish position on gold with a target at 1980 USD in the short term. There is a technical rebound going on in the cryptocurrency market. Last week was negative, the CME Bitcoin Future - Feb 2024 declined, dropping to around $41,000 and down more than 1 percent since Monday. The ether, on the other hand, suffered a more significant drop, falling more than 8 percent over the same period and now hovers around $2,250. Among the reasons for the decrease in the ether's valuation is the postponement of the SEC's decision on Grayscale and BlackRock's Ethereum Spot ETFs. On the other hand, the approval of the eleven Bitcoin Spot ETFs had an effect opposite to investors' expectations. Since the ETFs were approved on January 11, the value of Bitcoin has fallen by 15 percent, leading to an overall loss of nearly $200 billion in the cryptocurrency market. This was all predicted in my recent articles on cryptocurrency price movements. Currently, the Bitcoin market is highly promising and I may consider buying to benefit from the possible increase in value in the second quarter. Here are my current positions: I have confirmed my purchase on the Hang Seng Future Feb 2024. The arrival of effective stimulus measures in China has reinforced my bullish strategy. I am currently investing in Chinese stocks through a certificate offering an 18.5 percent annual return on two electric car manufacturers. I have also confirmed my bearish position on gold, which is currently generating excellent profits, and a short position on the Future Nikkei 225 Mar 2024. Given the high prices and the Japanese central bank's intention to abandon ultra accommodative policy this year, I expect a technical correction in the near future.
