There are a couple of expiries to take note of on the day, as highlighted in bold below.The first being for EUR/USD at the 1.1650 level. The expiries don’t tie to any technical significance but are quite chunky, so they might have some impact on price action in the session ahead.The dollar is keeping firmer today as the risk mood is leaning back towards being more cautious. So, that remains the bigger driver of price action. But all else being equal, we could see the expiries at 1.1650 keep a lid on price movement in European trading. That until we get to US trading later in the day, provided that there are no headline surprises.The US-Iran conflict continues to be the biggest driver of the overall market mood for the time being.Then, there is one for USD/CAD at the 1.3710 level. Again, the expiries don’t tie to much technical significance for the currency pair. As such, I would expect the impact to be rather minimal if not non-existent as we look to the session ahead. That especially as dollar sentiment continues to be the more important driver, being more closely tied to the risk mood.For more information on how to use this data, you may refer to this post here.

💡 DMK Insight
EUR/USD is facing a significant expiry at the 1.1650 level today, and here’s why that matters: While these expiries aren’t tied to technical levels, their size can influence market dynamics. Chunky expiries often lead to increased volatility as traders position themselves ahead of the event. If the price approaches this level, expect heightened activity, which could trigger stop-loss orders or prompt quick reversals. This is particularly relevant in the context of broader market sentiment, where any shifts in risk appetite could amplify reactions around this expiry. Look for potential ripple effects on correlated assets like the DXY or other major currency pairs. If EUR/USD breaks above or below this expiry level, it could set the tone for the next few sessions. Keep an eye on the daily chart for any signs of consolidation or breakout patterns around this expiry, as they could provide actionable signals for day and swing traders alike.

Watch the 1.1650 level in EUR/USD today; a break could signal increased volatility and trading opportunities.
