Why are we taking this trade?
Bitcoin has surged past the triangle pattern barrier at approximately $68,000, breaking resistance levels in the 4-hour timeframe which suggests a bullish stance in the short term. Traders anticipating this bullish movement over the next couple of days may consider employing a call butterfly strategy for short term gains.
To implement this strategy, traders can buy a higher strike call option (e.g., $77,000) and simultaneously sell calls in double quantity (2x) with a higher strike price (e.g., $80,00) and buy call with an even higher strike price (e.g., $85,000)
If Bitcoin touches $80,000 until the expiry date (March 29), traders will be at maximum profit from the strategy.
Should there be a market downturn, the downside risk is confined to the initial debit of $60. It’s worth noting substantial open interest at the $80,000 mark, indicating a potential resistance level that could amplify profits around this threshold.
