BTC за 15 хвилин знизився на 0,69%: коригування через закінчення опціонів та посилення ризикових настроїв посилюють короткостроковий тиск

26.03.2026 17:45–18:00 (UTC) Bitcoin (BTC) yielded a return of -0.69% over 15 minutes, with a price range between 68,385.8 and 68,956.2 USDT, and an amplitude of 0.83%. Short-term volatility intensified, market attention rapidly increased, manifesting as concentrated downward pressure.

The main driver of this movement was the approaching expiration of options, with related position holders adjusting their short-term holdings mainly to respond to the “maximum pain” zone (75,000–80,000 USD). Additionally, the slight rise in the put/call ratio of options triggered some protective operations. Moreover, the global market risk aversion sentiment increased, leading to short-term capital outflows and exacerbating the partial pullback of BTC.

Second, the derivatives market did not show extreme leverage changes; the implied volatility of options remained around the annual average of 46.35%, with no large-scale forced liquidations. Some trading platforms saw a slight outflow of BTC holdings during the movement period (about -0.2%), and large on-chain addresses engaged only in routine fund management behaviors, with no significant concentrated selling. ETF capital inflows slowed temporarily. Under the resonance of multiple factors, short-term volatility was amplified.

Currently, the main risks of volatility are concentrated in the options expiration effect and macro events disturbances. It is necessary to closely monitor open interest in derivatives, the fund dynamics of large on-chain addresses, and the capital flows of major exchanges, remaining alert to potential sudden events or liquidity pressures that could further impact prices. It is recommended to pay attention to support levels and macroeconomic trends, and to follow the latest market developments in a timely manner.
