The recent $BTC pump is likely pumped by market makers and hedge funds hedging around Options expiry.
This Friday ~$16B ~17b in $BTC options notional expires on Deribit - calls and puts combined.
Lately I watched a documantary about a former London market-maker employee , he put it simply in a documentary: desks now follow options volume and gamma.
Let's see Friday after-market or Monday for whether the hedging pressure eases or a new range forms.
Also U.S.–China consultations are on my radar this week.
I’m mainly watching tariffs, AI and rare earths, as the outcome could affect both tech sentiment and gold. SPY, QQQ, NVDA and GOLD are on my watchlist through BingX TradFi.
Meanwhile DGrid AI $DGAI is up 9.82% to $1.05 in the last 24h, outperforming the broader market.
The move comes as capital rotates into AI-focused crypto assets, with Bitcoin’s rally and improving macro conditions adding further support.
I’m watching $0.95 as the key level. Holding above it could put $1.20 resistance in focus, while a break below may bring $0.80 back into play.
The AI narrative could also get more attention around upcoming catalysts, including 0G’s Infinite AI launch on Sept. 29.
Not financial advice — just flow. We’ll see. 🙃🙂
