Thank you for visiting the Forex Academy FX Options market combined volume expiries section. Each day, where available, we will bring you notable maturities in FX Options of amounts of $100 million-plus, and where these large combined maturities at specified currency exchange rates often have a magnetic effect on price action, especially in the hours leading to their maturities, which happens daily at 10.00 AM Eastern time. This is because the big institutional players hedge their positions accordingly. Each option expiry should be considered 'in-play' with a good chance of a strike if labelled in red, still in play and a possible strike if labelled in orange and 'out of play' and an unlikely strike if labelled in blue, with regard to the likelihood of price action meeting the strike price at maturity.
