Why are we taking this trade?

On examining the 4-hour chart of BTC, it becomes evident that there are numerous demand zones and support areas being respected consistently during minor retracements. Currently, there are no significant signs of retracement or breaches of these support levels, with BTC maintaining its proximity to all-time highs.

With this continued upward momentum in mind, the bull put spread strategy emerges as an appealing option to capitalize on potential gains. This strategy limits losses to the difference between the strike prices and the net credit received. For instance, in our scenario, this would amount to $850 ($71,500 – $70,500 – $150).

Furthermore, it’s noteworthy that substantial open interest exists on call options above $76,000. This indicates that BTC potentially has more room to the upside, thereby offering opportunities to optimize profits beyond the $71,500 mark.
