Our weekly crypto derivatives analytics report delves into macro events; the current state of crypto and trading signals from spot trading volume; and futures, options and perpetual contracts.

After mostly trading sideways at the end of April 2025, a US-UK trade deal sparked a crypto rally. BTC surged past $100K for the first time since February, but it’s ETH's performance that captured the derivatives market's attention. 

A 23% increase in ETH's spot price led to an inverted term structure and a spike in front-end volatility. The put/call skew for ETH shifted from a bearish bias to a nearly 10% skew toward OTM calls. Other sentiment indicators, such as perp funding rates and futures yield, also supported the rally. In contrast, while BTC's funding rates and skew have increased, its implied volatility remains low at 40%, over 30 points below ETH's 7-day implied volatility.

Please check out the report’s highlights.

ETH’s record performance since 2021 was propelled by positive term structure

ETH has significantly outperformed BTC and the top 10 cryptocurrencies, marking its largest single-day gain since May 2021. The options market has reflected this enthusiasm, with implied volatility for short tenors rising sharply and inverting ETH’s term structure, thus contrasting with BTC's muted, positively sloped structure. The 7-day tenor for ETH is now trading at a 33-point premium over that for BTC. 

While puts dominate BTC's open interest, ETH is seeing the opposite trend. On May 8, 2025, options volumes surged over $120M, more than double the typical monthly volume, with $60M more in calls than puts. ETH now boasts a positive futures curve and funding rates, as well as a strong skew toward OTM calls.

ETH sees exceptionally bullish put/call skew

ETH's substantial outperformance in the current crypto rally has led to bullish sentiment in its derivatives markets. Funding rates have surged, futures yields are strongly positive and the put/call skew has shifted significantly toward OTM calls, now close to 10%. This starkly contrasts with early April, when the skew was 20% toward OTM puts. Although ETH has underperformed (relative to BTC and other "ETH killers"), it has rebounded in this rally, with the ETH/BTC ratio rising after spending most of the year declining.

Open interest for Bitcoin options increased, with implied volatility remaining suppressed

The announcement of the new US administration's first trade deal, nearly 30 days into Trump's 90-day tariff pause, jolted crypto markets, pushing BTC back up above $100K. Surprisingly, implied volatility has remained suppressed, failing to invert BTC's term structure, with front-end volatility trading at around an 18-month low of 35-40%. On May 8, 2025, options volumes surged, with call volume reaching $189M, reversing last week's trend of higher put volumes. Meanwhile, open interest rose steadily to exceed $300M, the highest level this month, but remains significantly larger for puts than for calls despite the price increase.

Compliant trading means following platform rules and avoiding manipulative behavior. Learn more about how you can trade responsibly and compliantly on Bybit.

Crypto trading has come a long way from what used to be the domain of institutional players, and is now open to almost anyone with an internet connection. It’s easier than ever to buy and sell digital assets, try new strategies or build a portfolio from scratch all within minutes.

But with that level of access comes responsibility. As more people join the market, the need for fairness and accountability has become even more important. This isn’t just about price charts or profits — it’s about keeping the playing field level for everyone involved.

At Bybit, we take that responsibility seriously. We're here to offer the tools, safeguards and education you need to help you trade responsibly and to protect the platform from misuse.

This article describes what it actually means to trade compliantly, why it matters — and what can happen if things go off course.

Compliant trading means playing fair, following the platform’s rules, staying within the boundaries of what’s allowed and avoiding anything that could unfairly affect the market.

It’s not about avoiding risk: it’s about knowing what you’re doing, using official tools the right way and making sure your trades aren’t causing harm to yourself or others.

In short, compliant traders don’t just focus on their P&L — they understand that how they conduct themselves while trading matters. Responsible trading protects their accounts, keeps the platform stable and builds long-term credibility in the crypto ecosystem.

Why does responsible and compliant trading matter?

It’s easy to assume that compliance is only something platforms or regulators need to worry about. But in reality, every trader plays a part. When someone attempts to exploit the system — for example, by coordinating mass trades through off-platform channels — the consequences can ripple across the entire market.

In extreme cases, irresponsible trading behavior can:

And if the trades in question are linked to coordinated action, use of fake accounts or external bots? That opens the door to account freezes, compliance reviews and, in some cases, permanent suspension.

Bybit has a responsibility to act when the system is being abused — not just for legal reasons, but in order to protect honest traders.

Common examples of noncompliant or risky behavior

Some traders join Telegram groups or online communities in which KOLs (key opinion leaders) give out coordinated trading instructions (for example, “Buy token A now, sell it in an hour”). This practice isn’t just risky: it often involves a small number of insiders benefiting while the majority end up with losses.

When many people follow the same instruction all at once, it can artificially inflate the price of a low-liquidity token. The KOLs then exit at the top —while others are left with falling prices and unexpected liquidations.

Such a textbook case of market manipulation violates our Terms of Service and, depending upon jurisdiction, could violate financial laws.

Using bots or unverified trading strategies

Some Telegram groups may seem convincing, but trades coordinated off-platform are often unverified and may serve someone else’s agenda. 

 programmed to front-run trades, mimic pump-and-dump strategies or follow unverified signals can trigger compliance red flags and may lead to account restrictions.

Bybit does not support trading bots from unverified sources. They can also trigger flags in our monitoring systems, which may result in account suspension.

Using another person’s account or sharing login credentials — even if it’s with a family member — goes against both Bybit’s policies and global 

(AML) rules. It also opens the door to fraud, loss of funds and irreversible penalties.

Tips for responsible and compliant trading on Bybit

The good news is that there’s a better way to trade — responsibly, safely and with confidence, starting with the right tools, mindset and habits.

Use copy trading the way it’s meant to be used

Being compliant doesn’t mean missing out on opportunity. In fact, it’s the opposite. It means you’re using the platform the way it was designed, with safeguards, transparency and trust. Shortcuts might look appealing in the short term, but they rarely end well. The most successful traders on Bybit are the ones who understand risk, stay informed and trade with integrity.

How to trade compliantly and responsibly on Bybit

Discover how DAI evolved into USDS under the Sky protocol—unlocking passive rewards, scalability, and a new era of DeFi with Sky Token Rewards.

In September 2024, MakerDAO, a pioneering 

 (DeFi) protocol, underwent a significant transformation by rebranding itself as 

 (SKY). This rebranding was part of the project's comprehensive strategy to enhance scalability, user engagement and regulatory compliance. The major changes that came with the rebranding include token upgrades, whereby the platform’s stablecoin, Dai, was upgraded to USDS (Sky Dollar) while the 

Let’s take a deeper look at USDS and its role on the Sky platform.

USDS (United States Dollar Sky) is the upgraded version of the Dai stablecoin, launched under the newly rebranded Sky protocol (formerly MakerDAO).

 Like DAI, USDS is a decentralized, overcollateralized stablecoin designed to maintain a 1:1 peg with the US dollar.

However, USDS significantly improves scalability, user incentives and regulatory positioning, making it a next-generation solution for DeFi.

One of the standout features of USDS as a stablecoin is that it creates 

 opportunities for its investors. With USDS, you can access the Sky Savings Rate (SSR) feature, which allows you to participate in the Sky ecosystem's governance by accumulating Sky Token Rewards (STR) (presented in the form of SKY tokens).

SSR also features a variable automated token accumulation feature, whereby you receive 

 to the SSR program. This passive earning potential offers a major advantage for users seeking yield without complicated 

Sky uses a dynamic model that adds USDS to the SSR pool every few seconds. Over time, the value of sUSDS in the particular pool increases. You can then opt to redeem your sUSDS for USDS, and receive the USDS you initially supplied in addition to the USDS equivalent you’ve accumulated.

These rewards serve as an incentive mechanism, enabling users to passively grow their holdings while supporting the health and stability of the Sky ecosystem.

Upgrading from DAI to USDS is straightforward. Users can visit Sky.money and initiate the upgrade directly through a noncustodial, user-controlled process.

The platform provides a simple interface on which users connect their wallets, exchange their existing DAI for an equal amount of USDS and instantly become eligible for yield accumulation and other Sky ecosystem benefits. There are no fees for the upgrade, and users retain full control of their assets at all times.

USDS isn’t just a stablecoin; it’s an evolution of DeFi money. With passive earning through Sky Token Rewards and a smooth, secure upgrade path, USDS sets a new standard for the way decentralized stablecoins can deliver value and financial empowerment to users worldwide.

USDS and DAI are both decentralized stablecoins originally developed under the MakerDAO ecosystem (now Sky). While they share the same core principle — overcollateralization and the maintenance of a 1:1 peg with the US dollar — USDS represents a major evolution of DAI, introducing additional incentives designed to enhance user experience, scalability and regulatory alignment.

DAI has long been a favorite in the DeFi ecosystem, allowing users to generate stablecoins by locking up crypto collateral such as 

. DAI features a savings program, the DAI Savings Rate (DSR), from which people can earn 

 (sDAI). While the DSR program is still running, upgrading to USDS lets you earn two types of rewards through the SSR program: sUSDS tokens and Sky Token Rewards (STRs).

In addition, USDS is well positioned to meet regulatory requirements, aiming for broader mainstream adoption while maintaining decentralization.

Below is a comparison table between DAI and USDS:

USDS is backed by collateral that’s deposited in Sky vaults by borrowers. In return, the reserves for these vaults are backed by three main assets: 

With a market cap of over $8 billion, USDS is the currently third-largest stablecoin after 

 is more complex than that of typical stablecoins, as it includes liquidation mechanisms and a peg-stability module. However, an audit of USDS’s smart contract in September 2024 didn’t report any significant risks with the stablecoin. Notably, S&P Global Ratings 

 of 4 out of 5, indicating constrained ability to maintain its peg under certain conditions. 

​Additionally, the proposal to include a freeze function for USDS, which bestows upon the Sky protocol the power to halt USDS transfers between wallets, has sparked heated discussions within the community, highlighting the ongoing conundrum of balancing security measures with principles of decentralization.

The evolution of DAI to USDS marks a major leap forward for DeFi. By combining DAI's trusted and overcollateralized model with additional passive earning opportunities through Sky Token Rewards, USDS empowers users to enjoy greater financial benefits with less complexity.

The streamlined upgrade process and stronger regulatory positioning set the stage for broader adoption and a more resilient future. As Sky continues to build, USDS represents more than just a stablecoin — it’s the foundation of an open, accessible and more rewarding financial ecosystem for everyone.

A shooting star is a bearish reversal candlestick pattern with an extended upper shadow with a little lower shadow. It appears to signal traders a trend reversal is coming. Learn how it works.

The shooting star candlestick pattern is a single candle formation used by crypto traders to identify bearish reversals. Crypto traders who long the market use the shooting star pattern to identify when to exit their positions. Other crypto traders may use the pattern to identify short entries into the crypto market.

Crypto traders love this pattern because it’s easy to spot, then trade its signals. When the pattern is used in conjunction with other tools like Fibonacci retracements or other trend line resistance levels, it can create strong signals.

What Is a Shooting Star Candlestick Pattern?

A shooting star candlestick pattern occurs when an appreciating asset abruptly reverses lower, leaving behind a long upward wick. It is viewed as a bearish reversal candlestick pattern. This pattern often appears at the top of uptrends.

The psychology behind the pattern can be a little complex. First, traders see an uptrend with the continued strengthening of prices. Nervous traders on the sidelines watching the price appreciate worry that they might miss out. Due to this “FOMO,” traders then buy into the market, pushing the pricing even higher. This effectively attracts bullish traders into the market, which becomes a strong setup for a reversal.

As the market accelerates higher, the candle starts large and bullish, but a trap is set — and the market begins to decline as fast as it increased that day, closing the candlestick relatively close to where it opened.

Shooting star candlestick patterns are commonly seen in all markets, especially in crypto markets. Crypto traders are used to volatile price movements, and the shooting star candlestick pattern is a volatile bearish reversal after a long uptrend. A bearish shooting star appears and is confirmed when the candlestick’s low and close are equal.

What Does a Shooting Star Pattern Look Like?

There are essentially four parts that make up the perfect shooting star pattern. We’ve illustrated them in the image below.

A shooting star candlestick pattern starts with a large uptrend of the price at point 1. This helps set a trap for the bullish traders, as they may experience FOMO on the trend.

The next candle in the trend is where the traders get trapped. First, the FOMO on the uptrend kicks in as more traders enter the market by the influence of an uptrend. This creates the beginning of what appears to be a large bullish candle (point 2).

Then, the uptrend abruptly reverses and begins to retrace most of the recent price gains at point 3.

The candle formation is confirmed when it closes near the opening price, leaving behind a small body at point 4. The color of the candle body does not matter, as it could be red, green, black or white.

, the most important aspect of the candle pattern is the very long upper shadow, a little to no lower shadow, and a relatively small real body near the day’s low. This wick needs to be very long, generally about two to three times the length of the body of the pattern.

At first glance, the shooting star candlestick pattern looks a lot like the 

. In isolation, they are essentially the same pattern. However, the biggest differences between these patterns are where they appear and what to expect of the outcome.

The shooting star formation appears after an extended uptrend. Once the shooting star forms, then prices correct lower to begin a new downtrend.

On the other hand, an inverted hammer occurs at the end of a downtrend. Once the downtrend exhausts, buyers try to push the market higher but are unsuccessful, and the market retreats lower, creating a large wick to the upside and a small candle body.

Once the single candle inverted hammer pattern is finished, the market will rally, creating a new uptrend. Thus, confirming a reversal pattern.

In essence, these two single candlestick patterns are identical, but their location in response to the previous trend distinguishes the shooting star from the inverted hammer.

The shooting star and the hammer pattern are great 

 that signify the opposites. The significant difference between these two patterns is that the shooting star candlestick appears to have a long upper shadow (wick) to the upside with a small lower body. The shooting star appears at the end of an uptrend, and its presence implies that the market is about to correct lower.

 has a long lower shadow with a small upper body. The hammer pattern appears at the end of a downtrend, and its presence implies that the market is about to rally into a prevailing uptrend.

The essence of the shooting star pattern is a 

 that pulls long traders into a bullish trend as they anticipate more highs, only to see the market abruptly reverse lower. This pattern becomes even more effective when it appears near other important price levels of resistance.

Appearing near resistance applies more fuel to the pattern’s strength, as long breakout traders who are experiencing FOMO anticipate the break.

Near these resistance levels, breakout traders will push the prices higher to create a short squeeze. However, if the breakout doesn’t continue higher, then the sellers step in, forcing the market lower. As the pricing moves down, the stop losses of the breakout traders are hit, triggering additional selling pressure to the price.

This creates a false breakout higher, which leaves behind a long wick to the upside.

Therefore, the key ingredients to look for in the shooting star candlestick pattern include:

As we’ve seen, the shooting star pattern is a single candlestick pattern that signals a potential correction coming in the market. The signals are stronger when the pattern is spotted after an uptrend, as it alerts the trader to the potential of a new downtrend.

It is technically not a shooting star pattern when this pattern occurs in the middle of a trend or after a downtrend. If the shooting star is witnessed in a downtrend, the result of the pattern may not be a continuation of the downtrend. As a result, shooting stars in the middle of a trend or after a downtrend should be ignored.

A shooting star formation does not require other indicators to spot it. However, other indicators can be used to confirm and strengthen the signal the shooting star pattern presents. Two of the most common indicators are Fibonacci retracement levels and other resistance lines, such as horizontal and trend line resistance.

 levels are hidden support and resistance levels, as they may not be obvious to new or intermediate crypto traders. The Fibonacci retracement tool can be applied to a price chart, revealing levels where a market might reverse.

When a shooting star pattern appears near one of the important Fibonacci retracement levels, then the signal of the shooting star is strengthened.

In March 2021, Ethereum rallied about 25% to reach the 50% Fibonacci retracement level. Ethereum then tried to rally above that level, only to be rejected and pushed back down. This price action left behind a long wick to the upside, which was more than three times the length of the candle body, confirming the shooting star pattern. This formation suggested that a correction may be on the horizon.

Sure enough, Ethereum fell about 13% over the next couple of days. If a shooting star pattern appears after an uptrend near a common Fibonacci retracement level, then you have a confirmation signal to the pattern.

Fibonacci retracement levels are simply hidden levels of 

. Therefore, other forms of resistance are more obvious to traders, and they help strengthen the shooting star signals, too.

Horizontal resistance is a previous swing high extrapolated horizontally to the right on the chart. Above, we can see Bitcoin reaching a high in late May 2021, creating a horizontal resistance level. Later on, in June 2021, Bitcoin rallies to meet this horizontal resistance, and a shooting star candle pattern appears.

This pattern is most likely the result of bullish traders getting trapped into buying recent new highs. Bitcoin pushes higher slightly above the resistance level, only to see the bears take back control and push pricing lower.

This is a bearish combination that suggests a downtrend may begin. Once this pattern appears near resistance, Bitcoin prices fall nearly 30% over the next week to reach a new low just below $29K.

Using Shooting Star Candlestick Pattern to Spot a Bearish Reversal

The shooting star candlestick pattern can signal a bearish reversal. There are two ways to trade the signal, depending on whether you’re a more conservative or aggressive trader.

First, if a trader is already positioned to the long side when a shooting star candle pattern appears, then the formation may signal that it’s time to exit the trade or tighten the 

. The candlestick pattern provides a clue about a potential trend change, and the long trader will want to consider locking in profits before the market corrects lower.

Secondly, if the trader is more aggressive, they may want to jump into a short position at the first symptom of a potential turn lower. After the pattern forms, the trader would enter short on the open of the next candle.

The stop loss would be placed just above the candlestick’s wick high. The trader would look to take profit at a distance at least twice the size of the risk.

There’s nothing wrong with identifying with this aggressive trading style, as long as you understand the additional risks. For example, this approach includes a greater chance of getting stopped out of a trade. The market could reverse against your position and rally higher to tag your stop loss, causing you to eat a losing trade.

The benefit of the aggressive style of trading is its entry price. Due to the early entry into the position, the entry would be at a better (higher) price, making it easier to reach a good risk-to-reward ratio trade.

If you want a more conservative approach to trade with the shooting star candlestick, consider using a support trend line as the trigger.

Once the shooting star pattern appears, draw an upward sloping support trend line. Then, as the price crosses below the trend line, enter short into the position. The stop loss would be placed just above the wick’s high, and the target should be at least twice the distance from the stop loss to the entry price. This way, you can maintain a positive risk-to-reward ratio on the trade.

The benefit of using the more conservative approach is that you should receive fewer false signals. The downside is that the width of your stop-loss is much wider than with the aggressive approach. This means that the market needs to travel farther for you to maintain a positive risk-to-reward ratio.

The shooting star candlestick pattern is effective for identifying potential bearish turns in the market. However, the pattern should not be relied upon exclusively for trade signals, as it does come with limitations.

First of all, the shooting star pattern can be applied to any chart time frame — but it’s more effective on daily and weekly charts. If the pattern is spotted on a minute chart, there’s a greater possibility of it being a false signal because less trading information is going into the creation of each candle.

Secondly, the shooting star is a single candlestick pattern that inevitably requires fewer data to create relative to other patterns. For example, the bearish engulfing pattern is a two-candlestick pattern, and the evening star is a three-candlestick pattern. These patterns require more candlesticks and, thus, more data to create them.

Lastly, smaller cryptocurrencies have less trading volume taking place. Therefore, if the shooting star pattern is spotted on smaller-sized cryptocurrency charts, there’s a greater chance that a false signal is forming. Though the shooting star can be used for any cryptocurrency, it’s best used to identify bearish pivots on the larger ones.

The shooting star pattern is a single candle pattern that is effective at identifying tops on large cryptocurrencies. Traders widely use the pattern because it’s easy to spot and can be used on any chart time frame.

Other tools, like the Fibonacci retracement drawing or horizontal and trend line resistance, help confirm the shooting star pattern’s signals. However, the shooting star pattern has its limitations and should focus more on larger cryptocurrencies on hourly, daily, or weekly time frames.
