XBTH19 - Long post-December futures expiry discount gap future
Now that Deribit's December futures expired, and CME's/BitMEX's will soon, there should be a un-dump with price going upwards. Price around expiration usually dumps because of everyone pulling out their positions before their contracts are settled. Since March will be the newest futures contract on BitMEX the gap should slowly creep up to spot/index price.

So I made this chart -> This will show you when Bitmex futures are trading at a premium or discount to spot price (XBTUSD), and give you some idea of when to get in or out of the trade for maximum profit.
