If this, then that

  • If a small move higher into the 74K-76K short gamma area, even on low volume, then 80k (next days): That means even a small move higher even on low volume could start to accelerate as dealers hedge, potentially pushing price into high 70s and why not um towards 80K. ▶ 03:39

Levels named

  • 74–76k: Resistance (around 3 billion of short gamma from market makers sits in this area): In the 74K to 76K area there's around 3 billions of short gamma from market makers. ▶ 03:33
  • 74k: Resistance (74K was rejected on the last two attempts, March 4th and 17th): On the last two attempts on March 4th and 17th, the 74K level was rejected. ▶ 00:40
