On January 26th, options contracts worth $3.7 billion for 93,588 BTC will expire, with a put-call ratio of 0.52 and a “max pain” price point at $41,000. Current BTC prices hover around $40,000, below the max pain threshold, suggesting investors anticipate a recovery.

Similarly, ETH options contracts valued at $2 billion will expire on the same day, with a put-call ratio of 0.31 and a max pain price of $2,300, which is above the current price, indicating expectations for an upward movement.
The crypto market is on high alert for upcoming macroeconomic data that will influence the Fed’s interest rate decision. Investors are closely monitoring the U.S. GDP data for Q4 2023 and core inflation rates, as well as the U.S. 10-year Treasury yields and the U.S. Dollar Index.
