🚨 $BTC HAS A BIG DATE AHEAD AND IT’S NOT JUST ANOTHER PRICE LEVEL
Bitcoin is holding around the $86K area while traders head into Friday’s quarterly options expiry.
Coinbase Markets puts the BTC + ETH options notional scheduled for Sept. 25 at roughly $18.1B.
Here’s the part I’m watching:
BTC options have a 0.66 open-interest put/call ratio, while recent 24-hour volume is even more call-heavy at 0.37.
Call open interest is concentrated around $90K and $100K.
But don’t confuse positioning with a prediction.
Large call interest does NOT mean BTC has to reach those strikes.
It simply means the expiry could become an important volatility and hedging event as traders adjust positions.
📊 MY WATCH ZONES
🟢 $85K → first area I want bulls to defend
🟡 $86K–$87K → current decision zone
🔴 $90K → major options-interest area
The setup is straightforward:
Hold the recent breakout structure → momentum stays constructive.
Lose the $85K area → the market may need to reset before another attempt higher.
Friday’s expiry is the catalyst.
Price action decides the reaction.
Are you watching the $90K calls or the $85K level underneath spot? 👀
