 Hi there, I'm Molly Jane and in today's CryptoMarkets video we are talking to Patrick Hoyser from Crypto Finance AG. Hey Patrick, so looking at the major coins we're witnessing some sort of correction and what are the indicators show? What is the new support level for Bitcoin? Well let me first talk, let me first distinguish between what assets we're looking at. We, for example, when we look at the top 50 coins excluding BTC, we look at our own MACDs and advanced decline line indicators. They're quite slow, we look at them on a weekly basis, we also publish those on our rotation report. They don't in particularly look bullish right now, but then if I'm going to be a bit more precise, we have a few coins which we monitor very closely. They trade on futures exchanges, so we monitor the future cash basis. That means we're looking at where the spot is trading versus where the future contract of these currencies are trading. BTC has won, Cardano, Ether, Litecoin, EOS, Tron and Ripple as well. Well, when the basis trades in contango, that means the market is in a bullish state. When the future trade in backwardation, then it's rather on the bearish side. We have seen in the past two weeks quite a wide contango basis, so the market was pretty bullish. Now, let's talk about the BTC support levels. Currently, the high volume support is 5,000. We are right there, but further below 4,800, we think is quite an important level, and we will tell you why later on. And then 4,250 is the big support, last line of defense. That was the breakout level. What about the OTC market? What difference in the reaction have you noticed between the OTC and the exchanges both during and after the spike? It's funny you ask, because we have seen quite an interesting behavior in the market. During the spike, most of the volume went through traditional spot exchanges. That rumor which went around that a guy was buying roughly $80 million worth of Bitcoins, that is probably true because that volume spike we have seen on the exchanges. We also saw some large liquidations on Bitmax, which is the biggest derivative exchange in volume terms. And then on the OTC side, there was nothing happening on the spike. But when the consolidation happened roughly at around the 4,800 level, big trades went through and a lot of coins changed hands there. So, that's why we're also having the 4,800 as a support level. Okay, got it. So we've seen an increase in Bitcoin futures trading volume on CME. On April 1st, for example, we saw about 2,000 futures traded and then in just two days there were 20,000 futures traded. So what does this mean? Who is trading them and how is the futures trading reflected in the price of Bitcoin? Well, first of all, let me start with who's trading on the CME. Institutional clients are the ones who have access to the CME. No retail traders are there. And then there is even a separation within the traders so that the COT report has four groups. You've got the dealers, the asset managers, leveraged funds and other reportables. And there it was a very clear picture that the leveraged funds were short, right to the maximum on the 2nd of April. So the volume spike was definitely driven by the shorts had to cover back those contracts and probably even turned the other way around and went long. Then also on the traditional exchanges we have seen the volume spike. That means market makers who were trading actively on exchanges needed somewhere to hatch their positions and they probably went as well to the CME as it is still one of the liquid exchanges out there.
