There are a lot of vanilla options expiring at 10 am NY time around 1.11 for EUR/USD. I've never trade options, but many are saying these options are attracting the price. Can anyone tell me what are the conditions for such an option to be consider a "winner"? I'm reading that if the price of such option is around 10-20 pips away from the option price, the option is still a "winner"...is it true?
actually there is no rocket science in options..You are just paying a premium for different price levels which is called strike price.
example
consider 1.1140 1.1150.1160 1180, 1.1190.1.1200 all as different strike price .
imagine current price is 1.1100 . You are expecting the price to jump towards 1.1213 .so you can buy call option of the mentioned strike price .higher the strike price from the current level you have to pay less premium.
example at the current price of 1.1100 you are betting for 1.1200 call , then you have to pay little premium for that because the probability for that to happen as per current rate is less probability game..so the premium you are paying for that deal is your investment . either you will loose all the premium if the price remain the same or no movement happened from the current level upward.Every time you can exit the position if you see a movement upside( no need to wait for 1.1200 level to hit i mean) along with the upward move , your premium too start to go higher .so in short, you can buy a call by paying less premium and can take advantage out of the large move.
if you didnt close the trade and price didnt go above 1.1200 what ever premium you paid will loose. no other risk even if it goes to 1.0500
opposite is the put call..where you are expecting the price to drop and you are betting on difference price level which is called the strike price..
hope you got some idea now.

i feel below 1142 only one should think about shorting now..else at 1213 level, next data is meant for stop loss hunting i feel. Many feel temptation to short seeing up move and i feel all get stopped out at higher level after the data release..this is the real game big players do often to fool the public.before that many attractive explanation can be be expected from spammers as well .

The bears will start entering the market in 20 minutes time driving it down to around 1.1118. The 15 minute chart is still on a down trend and the European market will start selling off for profit taking at 5 o'clock.

There is always struggle when trying to break a resistance zone as you can see in the image below (EURUSD 1H chart) .. not fully identical but very similar struggle.. and before it goes trough it can reverse back a little deeper..

Happy Trades

I prefer to buy since bullish candles supported by high volume & most of traders sell this pair.

Dax appears to be breaking lower, should give EU bull strength if correlation holds.
