Cautious optimism and innovative responses in the rebound: BTC market dynamics and the launch of Seagull products | Week

At 8 pm on September 10, in a live broadcast on the official YouTube channel of Matrixport, Daniel, head of asset management at Matrixport, analyzed the comprehensive reasons why the BTC price broke through $57,000 again this week (September 9-September 15), and how investors can obtain greater returns in a one-sided market.

The live broadcast content is as follows

On September 10, the cryptocurrency market continued its rebound momentum, with BTC prices breaking through $57,000 again, and market sentiment has recovered. Although this rally has boosted investor confidence, potential uncertainties and risks in the market still exist. Matrixports latest structured product for unilateral markets, Seagull, provides investors with a new income strategy in unilateral market conditions.

Analysis of the causes of market fluctuations

Market reaction to Fed rate cut expectations

The recent discussion about the Federal Reserves possible 50 basis point rate cut has attracted widespread attention in the market. This expectation has boosted risk assets such as BTC in the short term. This is because rate cuts usually mean increased liquidity and lower funding costs, which may encourage more investors to shift funds from traditional markets to high-risk assets such as BTC. However, due to the increasing uncertainty in the global economy, the market remains cautious about the long-term effects of the rate cut policy.
Investors should pay close attention to future economic data, employment conditions and the Feds policy statements to avoid excessive optimism due to short-term positives. At the same time, investors need to remain vigilant about the long-term market trend against the backdrop of rising global inflation, tight supply chains and increased geopolitical risks.

BTC technical rebound

On September 10, the BTC price broke through $56,500 and further rose to $57,000. This rebound boosted some market sentiment, and some investors saw it as a signal that the market was back on an upward trend. However, this rise was more of a technical rebound, a correction after the previous market was oversold, and lacked sufficient positive catalyst support. Therefore, the sustainability of this rebound still needs further observation. Investors should remain cautious in the current market environment and not blindly chase the rise. They should combine technical analysis with changes in market sentiment and carefully assess possible callback risks to avoid being significantly affected by short-term market fluctuations.

Long-term holder supply hits new high

The supply of BTC to long-term holders exceeded 4 million for the first time. This data shows that more and more investors choose to hold BTC for the long term and reduce short-term speculation. The increase in long-term holders shows investors confidence in the long-term value of BTC, which helps stabilize the market and reduce panic selling caused by short-term fluctuations. This trend will help ease the liquidity pressure in the market and provide stable support for the future price trend of BTC. In addition, as the confidence of long-term investors increases, the BTC market may attract more institutional investors in the future.

The potential link between politics and market volatility

The upcoming US presidential election and Trumps campaign have become market catalysts that cannot be ignored in the coming months. If Trump is re-elected, the market expects that his policies may push investors to turn their funds to safe-haven assets such as BTC. Political dynamics will become an important factor in future BTC market fluctuations. Investors should pay close attention to developments in this regard and prepare corresponding market response strategies.

Market liquidity and volatility increased

The recent market shows a trend of declining liquidity and increasing volatility. BTCs short-term rebound occurred under the condition of low market liquidity, which increased the markets fragility. Investors should pay special attention to risk management in the current high volatility environment, flexibly adjust investment strategies to cope with possible drastic market changes, and avoid unnecessary losses when liquidity is insufficient.

The impact of ETF fund flows on the market

The continued outflow of ETF funds has caused significant selling pressure on the market, especially against the backdrop of weak performance in the US market. This phenomenon has further weakened market liquidity and may continue to put pressure on market prices in the short term. Although the current outflow of ETF funds has a certain negative impact on the market, as more and more institutional investors gradually enter the BTC market, liquidity issues are expected to be alleviated in the long run. The addition of institutional funds will bring more stability and confidence to the market.

Options Market and Institutional Behavior in the Current Context

Analyzing multiple technical indicators (such as 25 Delta Skew, implied volatility curve), it can be seen that although short-term market sentiment is still cautious, investors are still optimistic about the market trend in the long run. Due to the increase in speculation and hedging activities in the market, volatility may continue in the short term. Therefore, investors are advised to remain patient in the current environment and consider a long-term holding strategy.

Investment directions to watch

Using financial instruments for market hedging

In the current complex market environment, investors should adopt a prudent investment attitude. Global macroeconomic uncertainty is increasing, and geopolitical factors may cause further volatility risks to the market. Investors are advised to adopt a diversified investment strategy, rationally allocate assets, and reduce dependence on a single market to cope with potential market fluctuations. By diversifying investments among multiple assets, investors can effectively reduce the risk of the overall investment portfolio and improve their ability to cope with market uncertainties.
During periods of high market volatility, investors can use financial instruments such as options and ETFs for risk management and hedging. Options can be used to hedge against market uncertainty and volatility, while ETFs provide a relatively stable investment channel.
Investors should avoid excessive trading and maintain a moderate investment strategy, especially when the market is subject to frequent short-term fluctuations. By using hedging tools properly, investors can better avoid short-term risks while retaining long-term investment opportunities.

Pay attention to volatility and consider long-term holding strategies

Although the market rebounded, it did not return to its previous highs. In the short term, the market still needs more time to confirm the sustainability of the rebound. In terms of the long-term trend, market sentiment remains relatively optimistic. Market participants are still taking advantage of market declines to reduce holding costs or increase long exposure, showing confidence in future long-term trends.
However, volatility is likely to continue in the short term due to increased speculation and hedging activities in the market. Therefore, investors are advised to remain patient in the current environment and consider long-term holding strategies.

Proper use of tools to enhance unilateral market benefits

In response to the current high volatility and obvious unilateral market conditions, Matrixport has launched Seagull, a product suitable for unilateral markets. Based on the option combination strategy, Seagull combines the characteristics of dual currency and trend smart profit, and is divided into two versions: bullish and bearish. It allows investors to choose appropriate strategies according to market expectations and determine different settlement methods according to the range of expiration prices.

For example, taking early September 2024 as an example, the current price of BTC is $56,500, and you invested in the Seagull bullish BTC-USDT product with a base price of $58,000, a maximum return price of greater than or equal to $58,500, and an expected annualized return of 18.85% to 279%. Then when the BTC expiration price rises to above $58,000 (including $58,000), the product can provide an annualized return of up to 279%; when the BTC expiration price is between $56,500 and $58,000, it can provide an annualized return of 18.85%; when the BTC expiration price is between $58,000 and $58,500, it can provide an annualized return of 18.85% to 279%; and if the BTC expiration price falls below $56,500, the product also provides a protection mechanism for opening a position at a discount and reducing holdings at a premium, which will provide an annualized return of 18.85% and purchase BTC at a price of $56,500.

Seagull has three notable highlights:
First, as a unilateral market income structured product, Seagull can enable investors to obtain substantial returns by correctly judging market trends, regardless of whether the market is rising or falling. Under a bullish strategy, if the market continues to rise, investors will be able to lock in high returns; and under a bearish strategy, if the market falls, investors can also ensure the appreciation of their assets;
Second, Seagulls multi-level income structure can provide flexible returns within different price ranges, ensuring that investors have income opportunities under various market conditions. When the market price exceeds a certain specified point, investors will receive a higher annualized return, and when the market remains within a certain range, investors can also enjoy basic income. This flexibility allows Seagull to adapt to different market conditions, ensuring that investors have the opportunity to earn income in any market environment;
Third, Seagull has a low investment threshold of only 100 USDT, 0.01 BTC or 0.1 ETH, which makes it very suitable for both novice and experienced investors. Whether it is a small investor who wants to try a new strategy or a large investor who seeks new income opportunities, Seagull can meet their needs.

It should be noted that although Seagull performs well in a one-sided market, its returns are capped. In extreme market conditions, investors may not be able to fully capture all market gains. In addition, although Seagull products provide certain downside protection, investors may still face potential loss risks when the market falls sharply. Therefore, when using Seagull, investors should reasonably allocate assets and flexibly adjust investment strategies based on their own risk tolerance.
