{quote} Thanks Chris - the assumption being that whoevers on the other side has an icentive to make sure it gets hit.
I believe so Stew. And the ones defending it want to hold it off because if it is hit at or before 10, the follow thru can be heavy. Or something like that?

{quote} The way I understand it (happy to be corrected) is yes. It expires at 10:00am EST so if not hit by then it's over.
Correct me if i am wrong but it depends on if it was a Put option or Call option??

Don't THINK it matters and depends on where price was when you bought the option - I think

I believe so. You mean as to whether it follows through or reverses right?

I really have a very limited knowledge. I've become interested in them but haven't had the time to really dig in. I know there are several kinds as well. US, UK ones that expire and ones that don't?

This time is a little different... you do realize last year when i was bearish at GBPUSD 1.58 it was on the bet that tapering was about to come.... but it came a little longer than expected because of mixed data....

This time us rate hike is very likely to be soon rather than later because of the fact that US data have been consistently good......

you should look at USDX where it was last year and where it is now....

LOL ... Good thing you didn't leave your phone number. But just because it wasn't hit by 10 doesn't mean the trend won't move happily along. In fact it might insure it?

looking at these things for me is necessary..but i have to pay attention to buy areas because i have sells under 1.6..this is how i manage my trade..im setting up positions to be hit while im at work..one way or other it doesnt matter because i already have areas i know are likely to be hit..downtrend is looking good..im glad it didnt bounce because this would complicate my long term trade

bought again looking for 1.62
