A quant has explained how the current large Bitcoin leverage ratio values can help bring a turnabout to the crypto’s price.

Bitcoin Leverage Ratio Rises To Values Greater Than During The ATH

As explained by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post, the massive leverage ratio right now might help BTC’s price reverse its trend.

The “Bitcoin leverage ratio” is an on-chain indicator that is defined as the open interest divided by the (derivative) exchange reserve.

Here, the “open interest” is a measure of the amount of futures contracts currently open in the derivatives market. While the exchange reserve tells us how much BTC is stored in exchange wallets right now.

The leverage ratio basically shows the amount of leverage used by users on average. The metric’s value helps us know whether Bitcoin investors are taking a high risk or a low risk.

When the value of this ratio moves up, it means investors are picking up more leverage as they are confident in their positions.

On the other hand, a decreasing trend of the indicator would mean investors are reducing risk, and closing off their positions.

Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin leverage ratio over the last few months:

As you can see in the above graph, the Bitcoin leverage ratio has been riding on an uptrend for a while, and now has values greater than those during the last price ATH.

The quant has marked peaks of the indicator on the chart and compared them with the BTC price. Apparently, whenever the metric has reached a top, the price of the crypto has reversed its trend.

The chart also shows another indicator, the RSI, which highlights whether BTC is currently overpriced or underpriced.

It seems like whichever way this metric has turned, the price has also reversed in the same direction. Looking at the chart, currently the leverage ratio seems to be hitting a peak and the RSI looks to be turning up. If there is indeed a pattern here, then the price of Bitcoin might change its direction towards the sky next.

BTC Price

At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price floats around $48.7k, down 2% in the last seven days. The below chart shows the trend in the value of the crypto over the past five days.

Keshav is currently a senior writer at NewsBTC and has been attached to the website since June 14, 2021.

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to.

In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions.

Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true.

Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn’t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment..

Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form.

Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new.

As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money.

Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn’t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs.

Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.
