Some decent forex option expiries casting a shadow 14 Aug

Just stepped back in as Greg needs to slide for a short while and we see the swiss franc extending losses that I highlighted earlier.

USDCHF underpinned still and posting new session highs of 0.9715 just shy of sell interest between 20-30 with EURCHF testing offers/res around 1.1450.

USDJPY currently 109.67 and again unable to make further gains being capped by decent sell interest between 109.80-00 that I highlighted earlier in the order board and with large option expiry interest at 110.00 at the top of the hour helping to cap.
