Bitcoin / Ethereum Analysis – Trading Data Reveals Stable to Positiive Future Short-Term Outlook

Analysis of trades on blockchain-based derivatives trading platform CloseCross reveals that general distribution of the predictions and the money committed to predictions for the price of Ethereum and Bitcoin show that almost all traders are eyeing ETH to either remain stable or increase in value. There was hardly any interest in the downward price. This could be interpreted as showing that the trading community does not seem to be worried of any downward price pressures and the bears are still not at play.

CloseCross, which is regulated under MIFID II rules, enables traders to generate profits through a simplified three clicks process of selecting an asset, predicting price-bracket(s) and committing funds to these predictions, for a variety of asset classes including crypto, stocks, indexes, commodities, forex pairings, etc.

As of mid-June, overall, around 4 out of 5 of Ethereum and Bitcoin trades on the CloseCross platform this month are for the cryptocurrency to increase in value from its price on 1st June, or for it to end the month with more or less no change.  Only about 20% are predicting a fall in value.  

CloseCross adds that there is a higher interest in contracts for Ethereum then for Bitcoin and while this isn’t conclusively saying anything yet, it could be interpreted as Ethereum being currently favoured by the trading community.

CloseCross CEO, Vaibhav Kadikar, said: “Traders are predicting price stability for Ethereum and Bitcoin for both mid-month and end of month contracts.  This indicates that the trading community does not seem to be worried of any downward price pressures and the bears are still not at play.”

 “There is no product on the market today, besides ours of course, that allows a trader to make profits without the asset price actually having to move significantly away from its current levels. Most derivative contracts only let traders make profits by making them commit to trades that are far “out of money”. We don’t do that. You can make a trade at CloseCross and say that the price will be the same as today and still make money if you’re right.”

CloseCross is regulated under MIFID II rules offering increased protection and transparency for customers. Unlike other trading platforms, there are no participation fees for using CloseCross, and its patented multiparty model ensures that leverage is not needed to achieve potentially outsized returns. Money placed on incorrect predictions is lost, but you never lose more than what you put in as there is no leverage needed or possible on the platform. Users pay facilitation fees, only on their winning trades, giving them significant savings when compared to traditional trading platforms.   

The platform also provides real-time data on the predictions of other traders enabling investors to make a more informed forecast based on increased transparency. People can choose to follow the crowd or go on their own views.
