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.

Sign (SIGN): Web3 protocol for trustless attestation

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

We take these steps in order to protect the broader user base and to uphold market fairness.

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.

Take the time to learn and use the tools available to you. And remember: protecting your account starts with choosing how you’ll trade.

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.

In the realm of MT5, traders have access to an array of powerful indicators that enhance analysis and improve decision-making processes. One such indicator is the Fractal Adaptive Moving Average (FRAMA). Designed to adapt dynamically to market volatility, FRAMA stands out in the toolkit available on MT5 for crypto trading. This indicator adjusts its sensitivity based on price fluctuations over a period, providing traders with crucial insights into trend strength and potential reversals.

 (MT5) is one of the most widely used platforms for trading a variety of financial instruments, including cryptocurrencies. With its user-friendly interface and suite of powerful in-built indicators, MT5 helps traders analyze market trends, identify potential reversals and pinpoint support and resistance levels. These tools make it easier to make smart decisions in real time. 

This guide lists the top MT5 indicators that every crypto trader should know, and explains why they’re essential for boosting profits and managing risks in the fast-paced world of cryptocurrency trading.

MT5 indicators are technical analysis tools used on the MetaTrader 5 platform to spot trends, analyze market data and generate 

. They assist traders in making guided decisions about 

MT5 is a versatile platform for cryptocurrency trading, offering a range of built-in and customizable indicators that help traders make smarter decisions. These indicators help identify the best times to buy or sell, analyze market trends and improve 

. Effective use of MT5 indicators empowers traders to sharpen their strategies and increase their chances of success in the dynamic crypto market.

A key use of MT5 indicators is trend analysis. Indicators like 

 (MAs) are essential for spotting market direction. Traders can track the crossover between fast- and slow-moving averages to determine when to enter or exit a trade. For example, when a fast-moving average crosses above a slow-moving one, it could signal an uptrend, encouraging traders to buy. On the flip side, a downward crossover might indicate a potential downtrend, suggesting it’s time to sell. These signals help traders align their decisions with market trends, improving their chances of making profitable trades.

MT5 also features oscillators, such as the 

 (MACD) indicator, which are valuable for spotting overbought or oversold conditions. For instance, an RSI above 70 suggests an asset might be overbought, while a reading below 30 signals it could be oversold. Such indicators help traders time their trades more effectively, reducing the risk of false breakouts and improving overall risk management.

By combining different MT5 indicators, traders can create a well-rounded trading strategy. For example, pairing the MACD for trend direction with the RSI for momentum and a volatility indicator for market conditions gives traders a comprehensive view. If the MACD shows a bullish crossover and the RSI indicates an oversold condition, this alignment could signal a strong buying opportunity in a market that looks set to rebound.

MT5 indicators are adaptable across different time frames, making them suitable for all trading styles — 

. Short-term traders can focus on faster indicators with minute charts, while long-term traders might rely on daily or weekly charts to capture larger market trends. This flexibility is key in the fast-moving world of crypto, where market conditions can shift quickly.

Using MT5 indicators offers numerous benefits for crypto trading:

MT5 offers a variety of indicators with features that can help traders navigate the complexities of crypto trading. These built-in indicators use real-time data and advanced analysis tools to give traders an edge in a constantly shifting market.

The Fractal Adaptive Moving Average (FRAMA) is designed to adjust to market volatility by changing its sensitivity based on price fluctuations. Using principles from fractal geometry, FRAMA calculates average price over time, which helps it effectively capture trends in frequently erratic cryptocurrency markets. This indicator is adept at closely following price movements during strong trends, while staying flat when the market is ranging. 

By adapting to changing market conditions, FRAMA generates buy and sell signals, helping crypto traders pinpoint potential entry and exit points. Its ability to smooth price data while remaining responsive to rapid shifts makes it an invaluable tool for navigating the volatile crypto landscape, improving both trend detection and risk management.

The Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) is a powerful technical indicator that smooths out price fluctuations by combining multiple exponential moving averages (EMAs), helping to reduce lag. 

In crypto trading, TEMA is particularly useful for its ability to quickly react to price changes, allowing traders to more accurately identify trends and make informed decisions. It generates buy and sell signals when a price crosses above or below the TEMA line, providing a clearer view of market direction. 

Given the high volatility in crypto markets, TEMA's quick responsiveness helps traders manage risk and act swiftly, making it an effective tool for navigating these fast-moving environments.

The Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA), developed by Tushar Chande, is an adaptive moving average that adjusts its sensitivity based on market volatility. Unlike traditional moving averages, VIDYA uses the Chande momentum oscillator to gauge how responsive it should be, making it capable of smoothing price data while staying sensitive to sudden market shifts. 

VIDYA is a valuable tool that can help crypto traders spot trends and potential reversals by adapting to rapid price changes. Its unique strength lies in its ability to balance responsiveness and smoothness, offering a clearer view of market conditions — an essential feature for navigating the highly volatile crypto market.

The Market Facilitation Index (BW MFI), developed by trader and author Bill Williams, is a technical indicator that measures how efficiently price moves in relation to trading volume. It helps traders assess market strength, comparing price changes with volume in order to provide insight into whether the market is driving movement or losing momentum.

The BW MFI uses color-coded bars — green, red, blue and pink — to represent different market conditions. This tool is especially helpful for crypto traders in that it highlights the relationship between trading volume and price changes, offering a clearer understanding of market intensity and potential reversals.

The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a momentum indicator that measures the flow of money into and out of an asset by combining price and volume data to assess buying and selling pressure. It generates buy and sell signals on a scale from 0 to 100, with values above 70 indicating overbought conditions and those below 30 signaling oversold conditions. 

Within high-volume crypto markets, the MFI’s sensitivity to volume helps traders detect trends and potential reversals. Its standout feature is the ability to reveal divergences between price movements and money flow, offering insights into market sentiment. This capability makes the MFI especially useful in the volatile crypto market, where quick decisions can help traders capitalize on price fluctuations.

The Volume Oscillator (VO) measures the difference between two moving averages of a cryptocurrency's trading volume. By expressing this difference as a percentage, the VO helps traders determine whether price movements are backed by sufficient volume, which is essential for confirming trends. It generates signals when the oscillator crosses above or below the zero line, indicating increasing or decreasing volume momentum. 

The VO’s ability to highlight shifts in volume dynamics makes it a valuable tool for confirming price movements and spotting potential reversals. A positive VO suggests strong buying interest, while a negative VO indicates selling pressure. This insight makes it particularly useful for crypto traders who rely on volume to validate price movements amidst market volatility.

The Chaikin Oscillator (CHO) is a momentum indicator that tracks the accumulation and distribution of an asset by combining the Accumulation Distribution Line (ADL) with a money flow volume indicator. It’s calculated by subtracting the 10-period exponential moving average (EMA) of the ADL from the 3-period EMA of the ADL. 

This helps traders analyze buying and selling pressure by examining both volume and price movements. When the CHO shows positive values, it indicates buying pressure, while negative values suggest selling pressure. Its sensitivity to volume changes makes it particularly valuable for identifying potential trend reversals, especially within the context of crypto market turbulence.

Also developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator indicator is a trend-following tool that uses three smoothed moving averages to identify market trends: the jaw (blue), teeth (red) and lips (green). These lines help traders spot when a trend is forming or reversing. When the lines are intertwined, it signals market consolidation, and when they spread apart, it indicates a trend is taking shape. 

The Alligator’s ability to differentiate between trending and consolidating phases is especially useful when applied to the crypto market. By filtering out noise during sideways markets, and highlighting strong trends when the lines diverge, it provides traders with clearer signals for optimal trade timing, making it a valuable tool for navigating unpredictable market conditions.

Williams Percent Range (Williams %R, or simply %R) is a momentum oscillator developed by Larry Williams that measures overbought and oversold conditions in a market. It operates on a scale from −100 to 0, with values above −20 indicating overbought conditions and those below −80 signaling oversold conditions. 

Williams %R generates buy and sell signals by analyzing the relationship between the current closing price and the asset's high-low range over a specified period (usually 14 periods). Its key strength lies in its sensitivity to price changes, allowing traders to respond quickly to market movements — an essential advantage in the fast-paced crypto market. This responsiveness makes it a valuable tool for identifying potential reversal points and making informed and timely trading decisions.

The Envelopes indicator is a technical tool that uses two parallel lines plotted above and below a moving average to create a price channel. It helps traders spot potential overbought and oversold conditions, as well as possible trend reversals, by tracking price movements within the upper and lower bands. If the price touches or crosses the upper band, it may signal overbought conditions, while touching or crossing the lower band can indicate oversold conditions. 

This indicator is particularly useful for determining entry and exit points, as traders can adjust its parameters — such as the moving average length and percentage deviation — to better suit the high volatility of the crypto market. Its adaptability makes it a valuable tool for optimizing trading strategies.

The Parabolic SAR (stop and reverse), developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr., is a trend-following indicator that helps crypto traders identify potential trend reversals. It appears as a series of dots plotted above or below the price bars on a chart. When the dots are below a price, it indicates an uptrend, and when they’re above, it signals a downtrend. Traders use these dots to determine entry and exit points. 

A flip of the dots from above to below a price suggests a possible uptrend, while a flip from below to above signals a potential downtrend. The parabolic SAR's ability to quickly adapt to changing market conditions makes it a valuable tool for traders navigating the volatile crypto market, offering clear signals to optimize timing trades.

Fibonacci retracement is a popular technical analysis tool used to identify potential support and resistance levels by applying the 

. It works by selecting two extreme points on a price chart — a high and a low — and dividing the vertical distance between them using key Fibonacci ratios: 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8% and 78.6%. Traders use these levels to analyze trends by identifying swing highs and lows, then applying the Fibonacci ratios to project potential retracement levels. 

In crypto trading, Fibonacci retracements are especially valuable due to the market's pronounced volatility. Price reactions at these levels can indicate potential reversals or trend continuations, helping traders determine entry and exit points with greater precision. Among the various levels, the 38.2% and 61.8% retracements are often the most significant, acting as strong support or resistance zones during a trend.
