@sarcastic_hedgi I didn't say it was 😅 Max Pain is an emergent property, not a design. ​Dealers don’t "target" strikes; Gamma concentration creates a mechanical gravity well. This "stable equilibrium" is just dealer hedging neutralizing organic flow. It’s structural pinning, not conspiracy

@CryptoforniaX max pain isn't some dealer conspiracy -- it's just where gamma flips sign and nobody has enough conviction to push through the hedging flow stable equilibrium is a fancy way of saying everyone's trapped but nobody wants to admit it

You’re observing a real effect, but drawing the wrong conclusion from it @naksterz 👇

$BTC $72.9K Short Scalp ​Entry at liquidity resistance (almost). Absorbing spot demand at $73K level. Onchain shows limit sell density/funding neutral. Aiming ~$71.8K mean reversion, if not, it's weekend change. I don't do SL! Scalp only, macro bias remains long post CPI.

6) What you’re actually detecting You’re correctly identifying: Liquidity vacuum Dealer driven microstructure Strike gravity But interpreting it as centralized control instead of conditional dominance.

@naksterz Options, especially 0DTE, now dominate short-term price behavior in low liquidity regimes. They pin/guide/accelerate price. They do not control direction across timeframes. When real $$$$ shows up, ETF/flows/macro shocks/forced liquidations... those “controlled levels” gets Rekt!

not arguing, telling.. you keep saying it doesnt. im telling you it does. i watch it with my own eyes. Wallstreet uses options in equities and crypto to control price. They use it in spx everyday to move price.. every single day.. even when trumps comes on.. options come in and we hit levels. the top of gamma or bottom.. positive and negative. You do realize 70% of all optoisn volume is ODTE now.. Ibit very similar it seems.

Crypto bros still dont get it. While they sit here calling outrageous targets. Not one of them realizes Wallstreet has taken full control of BTC with their IBIT options manipulation You are better off watching the options chain than price. I have watched the chain for 2 months now. Every single weekday they manage price and always end up near max pain or pinned at a big gamma level. This is paper bitcoin.. This week 41$ is likely going to be the level to stay below.. For now. Friday we could drop all the way through all this green to the first red or sit at 40/41. If we start dropping heavily overnight/tomororw - then 37$ is the target.. If we hold here into tomorrows close.. That means they want to keep it at 41 into friday. PAIN IN THE ASS..

@naksterz Options can pin Bitcoin short-term in low liquidity.. gamma hedging ≠ control Real moves come from spot, ETFs, whales, liquidations. On-chain shows neutral flows, weak volume, no whale expansion → thin liquidity = easier pinning, not direction control. Who's arguing? Not me..

Yes it does. There is no volume. Its weak.. Dont argue with me on this. I am telling you for a fact, that IBIT options havce controlled price every single day for months.. Not once have we closed into expiration above a major gex. not once. you arent watching, you dont know. That is weakness. We are literally sitting here at 41 because this week thats a major gex level. Two weeks ago we hit 42, gama squeeze. We came back down becuase of options and they eneded it lower max pain,. Every M-W-F they control price into their expiration and max pain Suynday night 5pm they start moving price to setup for monday

@naksterz By the way, you're anchoring to a pattern you've seen work... but extending it into a universal rule, that’s your flaw right there 😊

@naksterz Options can pin Bitcoin short term, but they don’t control it. When real spot flows hit (ETFs, whales, liquidations), price breaks those levels. If it never broke, trends wouldn’t exist. Options influence ≠ control.

@naksterz #Bitcoin proxy shows range compression: lower highs at resistance, higher lows below. Onchain flows aren’t showing strong accumulation or distribution...neutral. Without strong spot demand, price keeps rejecting highs and staying range bound.

The simplicity of TA can be applied here. I appreciate all the bulls on X making it clear how bullish they are. while totally and fuly disregarding the chart. Will be bullish if we start forming a pattern like the green to the left.. yes.. Otherwise, bulls will always be bullish at resistance and bears will always be bearish at support.

@naksterz Options can signal positioning, but they don’t guarantee direction. #Bitcoin breaks when real spot demand/liquidity hits. 1DTE just amplifies short-term pinning, not control. Options hint... but they don’t dictate every move.

@CryptoforniaX Price doesnt break from those levels. Not once have they. Only optiosn dictate price since the top . If there is giong to be a massive breka out, it will show in options.. it always does. that is why they created optoins and then added 1dte

@naksterz Looks like control Bud... but it’s just a sideways market. #Bitcoin sticks near options levels (gamma pinning) when quiet. Real strength shows when strong buying/selling breaks price away from those levels.
