$ETH
Be careful not to get caught in FOMO and the two-sided pricing strategy of MM to optimize profits, guys.
I will analyze the two-sided strategy during the preparation period for the expiration today.
The pain threshold value for the expiration dates today, 14/5 and 15/5 is (2575), and for 16/5 it is (2400) over three consecutive days.
If I were MM.
I would play the two-sided margin.
- Taking advantage of the news. I would push the price up to distribute goods filling into call contracts (buy) in the range of 2700-2800 and sell ETH at high prices.
- Then I would continue to push the price down to the pain threshold to liquidate these call contracts while also reducing losses for call contracts in the range of 2500-2575.
And I would continue this strategy again to push down to the pain threshold of 2400 on 16/5.
Thus, the margin on 14-15-16-17 runs very fiercely with the distribution strategy at high (selling ETH high).
Liquidating call contracts at high levels.
At the same time, liquidating put contracts from 2400 downwards.
And gradually reducing the profits of call contracts in the range of 2400-2575 towards 0.
This is a hypothesis to ensure profits during the consecutive expiration days of ETH. 16/5 is the last day it can last until the end of the day.
