Options calendar update

Posted by The Lonely Trader on October 12, 2009

Doubtful that my EURUSD target will be hit today, given the number of failures below 14840. But there is an option level of decent size and interest at 14850 that could serve as a magnet. It isn’t a barrier, to my knowlege, so the level won’t necessarily be defended as stronly as if it were. (I assume a lot, I know.) But hey, if I can get out of this trade by the end of the week, I’ll consider it a success.
