Yes folks, it's me again prattling on, again, about option contract expiries but ignore them and me at your peril.

USDPY has been underpinned all day with large 105.50 contracts rolling off, AUDUSD pinned near 0.7750 expiries. GBPUSD supply around 1.3830. EURUSD 1.2300 contracts a bit of a magnet but ntg of real note there today.

More coming up over the next few days to help contain range:

Tues March 6

  • EURUSD: 1.2100 EUR 2.0bn 1.2300 1.7bn
  • USDJPY: 105.50 USD 2.2bn 107.00 2.2 bn

Remember these are vanilla options and in play right up until expiry even if breached in the meantime unlike barrier options which cease to be once broken.Barrier Options still live:
