FX Option Expiries Set for September 11 in New York

On September 11, significant foreign exchange (FX) option expiries are scheduled for 10:00 AM Eastern Time in New York. Key levels include EUR/USD at 1.1575 with a total of EUR 1.66 billion in options and 1.1500 with EUR 1.18 billion. Other notable pairs include USD/JPY at 154.00 with US$ 3.06 billion and 153.00 with US$ 2.88 billion, as well as GBP/USD at 1.3630 with GBP 585.15 million and 1.3500 with GBP 653.00 million.

The expiries represent strike prices where option contracts will expire, encompassing both call and put options. Traders closely monitor these levels, as they often influence market behavior. For instance, if the market price approaches an expiry level without significant activity, it may gravitate towards that level due to hedging activities by market makers, which include banks and dealers. This can lead to reduced volatility and a tendency for prices to remain near the strike price until the expiration occurs.

Additional expiries include USD/CHF at 0.8150 with US$ 301.83 million and 0.8065 with US$ 518.46 million, USD/CAD at 1.3900 with US$ 789.06 million and 1.3800 with US$ 635.01 million, AUD/USD at 0.7250 with AUD 837.24 million and 0.7150 with AUD 807.96 million, and NZD/USD at 0.5850 with NZD 308.30 million. The EUR/GBP pair also sees an expiry at 0.8625 with EUR 259.70 million.
