There aren't any major expiries to take note of on the day, with the full list seen below.
The day itself doesn't contain any large expiries whatsoever, so that is quite straightforward. But in any case, there are bigger drivers of trading sentiment at play at the moment. So even if there are any large expiries, the impact might be more muted amid all else that is going on in broader markets.
The key major currency to watch remains the Japanese yen as intervention risks are bordering on the extreme now. That after the speculated 'rate check' from Tokyo officials on Friday last week. USD/JPY is catching a slight bounce off the 100-day moving average to start the new week, but downside risks remain heightened in the short-term with Japan's ministry of finance set to pull the trigger for actual intervention at any time.
Besides that, the dollar remains weak as a whole with precious metals continuing to surge higher. The flows we're seeing are quite something and it will be silly to try and pick the top for where gold and silver is going to go. It was the same case as it was all through January and the same sentiment applies now.
Yes, the moves have gone parabolic by quite an extent but the surging run and dollar rout will end when it ends. It is a fool's errand to be playing guessing games here.
As such, the dollar is still in a vulnerable spot with downside pressures still evident against the rest of the major currencies too. Do keep in mind that month-end flows will also factor into the equation in the days ahead.
