According to @SpotGamma, risk appetite surged to new highs in May as 0DTE (zero days to expiration) options volume reached approximately 61% of total S&P 500 options trades, marking an all-time record. The proportion of these high-risk instruments has tripled since 2022, highlighting a significant increase in speculative positioning by both institutional and retail traders. This heightened risk-taking behavior in U.S. equity markets often signals increased volatility and can spill over into cryptocurrency markets, impacting Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and other digital assets through correlated trading flows and liquidity shifts. Active traders should monitor cross-market volatility and potential risk-off moves as equity risk appetite climbs. (Source: @SpotGamma, Twitter)
