Shorted 1.1810, looking for a retest of the WPP
Why sell the bottoms when you can buy the tops...

Seems like a one way street now, not a single retrace since Frankfurt got their discounted price.

Even on the small time frames every single retrace stops at the previous highs and the price just keeps on going higher.

IMHO, we should visit 1.1600 area once again to confirm Reversal to UPSIDE, also it will form double bottom if we visit 1.1600.
Short at .11822
SL: 1.1841
TP1: 1.1720
TP2: 1.1600

my guess would be a sale.. what do you think?

Two notable ones are 1.1850-65 (1.1 BLN) and 1.1880-85 (1.0 BLN).

I have no idea, I will get info at 2.30 as the sizes/direction change all day pretty much.

if sale then the difference between expiry price and value price is how much excess profit there is for bank/fund. (I believe)

considering we are moving towards 1.185, I presume its a right to buy. anything above 1.185 and I presume the broker of the option will make profit on the excess (so they will want as high as possible) but don't forget someone has to sell...

if I understand correct.. currently prices for 1850 strike price for puts 0.0038 and for calls 0.0015. so for bears to make money.. it needs to stay under 1812.. for bulls , it needs above 1865.... anywhere between , neither bears nor bulls make money.. option writers make all..
of course these prices are changing constantly with more orders coming in..

if it stalls here at 1838.. norm at 1673/74. below 1681 is a coin flip.. bulls want to be above 1853 or this may fail. atm 1674 has more pips potential than 1853
