Waiting For Volatility

When will this boring price action end?

*|MC_PREVIEW_TEXT|* Hello my tasty friends, please find our mid-week update below. Waiting for volatility. It's been a slow start to the summer for crypto, at least when looking at price action. Volatility is stuck at a yearly low and BTC keeps banging its head on the ceiling at 110k. Alts like ETH and SOL are trading slightly better as of recently, though there are no clear signs of blast off mode for now. Boring!  It's still a bitcoin dominated market from a relative performance perspective and an environment I'm comfortable buying dips in, there just haven't been many chances. Presently, the bottom of the implied vol weekly expected move is 103k. Vs BTC, ETH and SOL have outperformed week-over-week, but I'm patiently waiting for a shift in weekly price momentum before I start to chase. Should we get the signal, I'll add to my positions which you can track on the tastytrade platform's Follow page. Finally, short-term correlations remain positive between equities and Bitcoin, so any downside volatility that shows up in stocks is likely to spill over to crypto, which I believe presents an opportunity.  Correlations: Updated - 7/9/25 - 6:00 AM CT Relative performance (weekly): ETH/BTC  6% SOL/BTC  2% SOL/ETH  -4%   The tastycrypto Show: Mondays & Wednesdays from 4:30pm - 5:00pm Central BAG BATTLES: Mondays on the OTC Live Show from 11am - Noon Central LIVE on YouTube | LIVE on X | LIVE on tastylive Contact |  Blog  |   Learn If you no longer want to receive our communications, please click here. tastycrypto is provided solely by tasty Software Solutions, LLC. tasty Software Solutions, LLC is a separate but affiliate company of tastylive, Inc. and tastytrade, Inc.
