BVIV volatility perps are trading near their lows on Bitfinex as bullish positioning continues to accumulate. The sustained long exposure buildup is putting downward pressure on the contract premium, creating a notable divergence between market sentiment and actual price action. Traders monitoring volatility instruments are seeing this as a potential setup worth tracking heading into the next session.

Volatility options have bottomed out, are the bulls still adding positions? This divergence is quite interesting; the next round will be a bottom-fishing opportunity.

The bears are preparing a big move; this premium drop will eventually rebound.

The bears are about to get hit again. What does this accumulation of bulls indicate?
