VanEck Bitcoin ETF (VBTC)

Hi James & Team What's your latest view on the ETF - VBTC for some Bitcoin exposure? Your last update on bitcoin was the 1/7/25 - "We don’t invest in Bitcoin at MM, but as we’ve said before, it’s not a market we would sell with the Trump family so heavily invested in the asset class." Back in May it was a Shawn - TRADE IDEA - Buy at $31 with stop loss at $29. Unfortunately it traded up from there and was not executed. It's trading at around $37 now. At what price would this ETF be recommended or has the opportunity passed? regards Debbie

Answer

Hi Debbie,

This is a high risk/return trading style vehicle which like the ASX200 has broken out to fresh all-time highs this week. From a trading perspective (Shawn answering):

We may consider VBTC around $37 with stops below $34.40.

Importantly stops need to be where we believe “the reason for the trade has gone” and in the case of Bitcoin the volatile noise is large hence the wide stops. The reason would be looking for explosive follow through after breaking out to new highs but we are conscious there are lots of “in the know” people long the crypto space looking for the right time to exit.

The Match Out: Bang! ASX breaks out of its trading range, scales new highs

Bang! The ASX broke out of its recent tight trading range today, trading above 8700 for the first time, buoyed by coordinated buying across the material and healthcare sectors, with technology also having a good crack. Softer employment data yesterday brings into play 3 rate cuts this side of Christmas, which is a bullish catalyst, however, today looked more momentum driven, with a clean break above a 6-week trading range, dovetailing in with low school holiday volumes – a quick trip into the city this am and a strong market – a win/win
