Coinbase Shares Plunge Amid Ongoing Selling Pressure and Derivatives Expansion

Coinbase's shares dropped by 3.07% to $178.95 on the day, reflecting ongoing downside risk and moderate volatility.

The company has announced an integration of its international derivatives trading infrastructure with Deribit, which will bring options trading to its platform.

This move allows users to trade digital-asset options and facilitates the migration of existing perpetual futures to the 'Deribit by Coinbase' system.

Technical indicators suggest a mixed profile, with momentum studies presenting a Sell signal from MACD and RSI remaining subdued at 40.95.

A forecast range of $169.57 to $188.33 is projected for the next 2-3 trading days, with probabilities favoring a downside continuation and potential short-term losses.
