BTC/USDT – Technical Outlook, Cumberland and Goldman Sachs takes a closer look at Bitcoin Ether derivatives

Share This Post

Two of the world’s biggest names in finance, Cumberland Global and Goldman Sachs, are offering clients alternative exposure to Bitcoin and Ether.

Last week, Cumberland, a major market maker, launched OTC bilateral options on the leading crypto pairs.

Goldman Sachs is following in its footsteps with similar contracts.

OTC options are created peer-to-peer through a safe and secure messaging system in contrast to standard options that trade on regulated exchanges.

Goldman Sachs and Cumberland will both offer bilateral options on their current OTC markets.

Price can clearly be seen in a ranging phase on the lower time frame. The price touched the support on 24th Jan 2022 and was unable to break it instead moved up again, forming a swing high at $45,811.64.

Here the price respects a bullish trend line. If the price breaks out of the smaller red zone, moving up, it can show some bullish pressure, and the price can reach the near resistance zone at $45,331.26. However, if the price fails to break the range zone and instead move down, it can come down near the $32,910.03 support zone.

Key Trading Recommendation

With the two financial giants adapting their crypto offerings, it can only be good news for crypto enthusiasts.

The price of  Bitcoin quickly rallied yesterday after the US executive order on crypto but fell shortly thereafter. This is an indication of the high fluctuation of this digital asset.
