Today's Expiry Board Exists. One Publisher Has It, and the Sizes Are Behind a Paywall.
Twice in twenty-four hours this desk published that nobody had today's option expiry board.
It exists. DZH Financial Research put out six order-and-expiry items between 06:27 and 07:08 Japan time, one per pair, each tagging a New York cut dated today — and every notional is behind a paid membership, the exact inverse of the usual failure where the level is in prose and the size is locked in an image. The strikes: dollar–yen 158.00, euro–dollar 1.1230, sterling–dollar 1.3400, aussie–dollar 0.7000, euro–yen 177.10 with stop-loss selling below, sterling–yen 214.00 with sell orders. Six English publishers returned nothing — investingLive, Newsquawk, FXStreet, forexlive, Investing.com and fxterminal — so the sentence we should have written was "no English-language publisher we can open has one", and that is the second time in two days we have confused "we could not reach it" with "it does not exist". The sterling strike is the one that matters: 1.3400 sits 25 pips under a 200-day one wire puts at 1.3425 and 73 pips under its 1.3473 quote, with the Bank of England at 12:00 UTC and the cut three hours later at 15:00, so the strike is a level under a fresh breakout rather than a magnet above spot. The yen board names two cut dates and calls one extremely large, and tomorrow is payrolls. And the euro–yen stop cluster sits ten pips below the floor of one desk's own published forecast range.
