Market Measures - February 3, 2021 - The Story of Bitcoin

Published: Feb. 3, 2021, 3:37 p.m.

Bitcoin (BTC) is around 4x more volatile than SPY at this moment. 

As both the market and bitcoin approach all time highs, one may be a good hedge against the other as their correlation is low: around 0.30. 

With no options for BTC at the moment, one can trade it directionally using futures (/BTC) or the new cash crypto feature on the tastyworks platform.
