What to Know:
- BlackRock’s IBIT has been wearing a bearish put bias like it’s in vogue, for two whole months now-talk about fashion-forward!
- Traders, in a blend of caution and ‘I told you so’ vibes, have been romancing protective puts over bullish calls since July. A trend that screams risk-avoidance anthem.
- IBIT’s oh-so-promising price uptrend seems to have hit puberty and stalled (ew) since July. You can practically hear it whine at the $70 level.
There’s a key metric tied to the oh-so-trendy BlackRock’s Nasdaq-listed spot exchange-traded fund, IBIT, that’s flashing its ‘I’m worried here’ red light faster than a speedrunner going for the leaderboard. Specifically, the IBIT’s one-year put-call skew (basically, its mood ring) flipped positive on July 25 and coyly refused to leave that zone since then. Source: Market Chameleon. Two whole months of bearish put bias? No sport!
In layman’s terms, traders have been playing it super safe, favoring those protective puts like they’re the newest trend in hoodies over the gleaming glamour of bullish calls. It’s a long-standing two-month saga of chicken little-style caution.
This regressed their swagger all the way back to spooky times in the middle of the year-the kind your grandpa would reminisce about when you ask him about the ‘good old days.’ From March 8 to April 21, a similar bearish mood was in town, and it delivered a price plummet that we could only whisper about in horror.
IBIT’s Hot Uptrend Has Cool Front Teeth
IBIT’s enviable price trend decided to take a long nap-yes, the middle-of-the-day-I-need-my-nap variety-since July. It tried to jump over the $70 level, but it’s been more grounded than one of Bridget Jones’s “will they, won’t they” moments. Recently it pouted into a “lower high” at $66, turning into a fractious teenager refusing to budge above the previous high of $70.
Ironically, this pattern whispers soft tales of weakening buying pressure and heralds that sellers, much like persistent fans at a Bridget Jones premiere, are gathering in strength. These lower highs are coyly suggesting that we could be in for a wave of bearish momentum-just for giggles.
