CS observe trades of standard contracts taking place in Risk Reversals, Over-the-counter (OTC) & Pin Risk An overview of changes to at-the-money volatilities and the relative value of puts vs. calls for different pairs over standard tenors
At-the-money (ATM) implied volatilities are the prices (in volatility terms) for the most liquidly quoted forex option contracts. Significant changes can indicate a change in market expectation of future variability in the underlying forex spot market.
25-delta risk reversals show the difference in volatility, and therefore price, between puts and calls on the most liquid out-of-the-money (OTM) options quoted on the OTC market. Positive values indicate calls being more expensive than puts (upside protection on the underlying forex spot is relatively more expensive), while negative values indicate puts are more expensive than calls (downside protection is relatively more expensive). Significant changes can indicate a change in market expectations for the future direction in the underlying forex spot rate.
The OTC volume index shows volume traded in the past 24-hours versus a rolling one month daily average. While not capturing all OTC flow, the index is a barometer of volume on liquid contracts for different crosses. Values over 100 indicate volume higher than the average, values under 100 indicate volume lower than the average.
Positions of significant size in the forex options market can have an influence on the underlying forex spot rate. FX Options strikes in large notional amounts, when close to the current spot level, can have a magnetic effect on spot prices. That is, spot may trend around those strikes as the holders of the options will aggressively hedge the underlying delta. The Market Pin Risk report shows large options expiring in the next 5 days that BrokerCreditServiceEU have observed on the OTC forex options market. Red strikes indicate sizeable open interest close to the current forex spot rate.
