QCP Capital analysts expect increased liquidity in high-risk assets. 
According to <a href="https://t.me/QCPbroadcast/1136" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">a report</a> dated Feb. 16, experts will remain optimistic as liquidity flows back into risk assets. At the same time, inflation, stable at more than 3%, remains a downside risk and will also mean increased market volatility.

 “For investors who are still bullish but are starting to be downside defensive at these levels, we provide an Upside Participation Structure (UPS) which gives 100% protection on the principal investment amount but uses the yield for a leveraged upside bet.” <cite>QCP Capital analysts </cite>
</blockquote> 
Analysts note that the recent increase in <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/CME/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CME</a> margin requirements has become an essential trigger for volatility. In this case, leveraged players found themselves short, and the new requirement led to widespread short covering during the relatively illiquid Lunar New Year weekend. This led to an increase in both spot and forward prices.

QCP Capital explained the dynamics of the options market and the breakout above $50,000 by increased demand for spot ETFs.
