SNX Updates: Two Items todayNote the following quotations are their words, not mine. I am just passing this on to my fellow SNX hodlers to keep you abreast of either delays or progress (I see it as both). 1. "Today (October 19, ~21:00 UTC) the Kaus release will begin, implementing a minor upgrade on both L1 and L2. During this release there will be no downtime on L1 or L2. Here's what’s included in this release: SIP-187 - Fix Partial Synth Updates In Debt Cache: Fixes an issue with partial updates of synths in the debt cache which is causing the cached debt value to not update after minting and burning sUSD. This release is called Kaus , which like all releases is named after a star (in order of visual magnitude)." 2. Also, the Synthetix folks "have been busy building the future of the Synthetix protocol and have launched our decentralized perpetual futures on testnet. All futures will be traded through Kwenta and to celebrate, we've launched a free trading competition for our community with up to $50,000 in prizes. The signup process is easy (you just need a wallet address and a twitter account) You can visit the Registration Page or for more detailed instructions, visit the Kwenta Blog. As a contestant, you will have the first public look at our new perpetual futures trading platform, powered by Synthetix. As the first truly decentralized and composable derivatives protocol, our perpetual futures are optimized by simulated liquidity, which helps ensure you get the best fill across any asset." So, they have a few irons in the fire, which may actually be retarding price action for the time being, but in my humble opinion, an improved protocol will be a more valuable protocol. - TG-L

Oatly group. Falling wedge. Heavy call activity. Evening everybody, this is a stock I have been following fairly closely since IPO as I am a daily consumer, it finally made me want to enter. We have been trending south since IPO but a reversal candle pattern on the daily paired with a hammer on the weekly suggests that downtrend is about to change, albeit if we break out of falling wedge. We see a fisher cross on the day and we have just bounced out of oversold conditions on the day. Also delving into the derivatives activity behind this stock there is huge calls for December 17th which suggests the price will go North. Up a fair amount today so will be worth waiting for a pullback or entering Stay safe out there guys and gals.

BTC Analysis Short Setup HTF HTF BTC Analysis I think the best trade right now is no trade but we can plan for the move ahead of us . In this case I favour a short off of the daily level highlighted which is confluent with the fib level shown . After the move up to the said level I would be looking to fill a short with the targets down to the 100EMA and the POC depending on other market metrics at that time . Always know your Invalidation and use a SL Like Follow and Share is always appreciated

Mispriced Gamma - Settled Longs Opting Delta Ahead of Massive UpAcross the derivatives markets we're seeing lower premiums than we would expect following this possible gamma increase week over week (which is still ahead of full acceptance). With a significant amount of piecewise linear activity with consistent slopes combined with table-and-chair vertical+sideways motion we saw massive volume creating price constraints as the large ships set their sails following the past month of blood in the seas. If we are in-fact seeing this mis-pricing in Gamma the market would be telling us to short gamma, but, as we know the decentralized liquidity pools are already shorting gamma implicitly if we consider multi-currency effects with Bitcoin as a run-to-safety on either side of the coin from a bear rout to a final upward FOMO. We'd naturally expect intelligent coins to take the opposite side of the trade, then, pricing a significant upward move in Gamma especially at such a relatively low point of volatility. Simultaneously, interest in derivatives is somewhat low. What does this mean? Smart money is extremely long delta simply waiting for the dark forest FOMO shootout to cycle the underwater turbine lifting everyone. The money held behind which ought to be locked in delta-neutral gamma-long positions is actually preferring the missed gamma opportunity in favor of degenerate breakout trading or the other side, flatting the premiums on top of all-time-high degeneracy. If we want to play the first bounce following the all-time high then it would be natural to simply make our way into long gamma here with the intention of missing some of the delta in the initial breakout, kicking the can down the line so that we can instead make our way out of this into long delta on the future bounces.

The Put/Call Ratio in a NutshellWhat is the put/call ratio? The put/call ratio (PCE) is a popular barometer of market sentiment, which shows the ratio of trading volumes of Put vs Call options. However, with distortions in the current price of nearly every instrument off the back of "free money," and persistent market intervention by policy makers, we're not quite seeing the price discovery we're used to, which has made it more difficult to make sense of the Put-Call, and other technical indicators as well. What is a derivative? To understand the value of the put/call ratio, we must first understand the derivatives market. A derivative is a (leveraged) instrument, which gives the holder a right to either buy (call) or sell (put) a specific amount of a stock (or other instrument), at a specified price, and timeframe. If your'e holding a put, you're likely expecting the price of the stock to fall, while holders of calls are expecting the price to rise. Puts are usually used as a solid hedging tool, while calls are more often related to speculative behaviour. How to use the put-call ratio? When the put/call rises above 1, it indicates that market sentient is shifting more bearish. At the moment, we're looking at a put/call of around 0.46, which indicates that market sentiment is very bullish, and actually, it's been bullish for quite some time as you can see in the chart. When we see a massive shift in the put/call back above 1, naturally it would be showing that investors and traders are becoming more defensive.

[60%] INJ / USDT- First target : 14.4$ - Second target : 18$ Analysis : - Bullish divergence momentum - Descending triangle - Falling wedge RSI What Is Injective Protocol (INJ) ? The Injective Protocol project is a revolutionary idea that aims to make currency exchanges completely decentralized, public operated networks. What this means is the exchange is solely operated by people who hold INJ tokens. There is no centralized governing body that enforces control over the development of the project. The Injective Protocol project officially launched via a public offering in 2020, and it was backed by names in the industry like Binance, Pantera and Hashed. The Injective Chain is the blockchain foundation of the project. It hosts a completely decentralized order book and employs elements from the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The platform also incorporates a bi-directional token bridge, linking it to the Ethereum ecosystem.
