-
1.2000 (0.825 bn)
-
1.2110 (0.892 bn)
The entire structure is dominated by a massive magnet at 1.1900 (4.1 bn).
The current spot is 1.1986, already inside the magnetic zone.
Into the NY cut, the most natural path is:
1.2000 → 1.1950 → 1.1900
The size at 1.1900 is overwhelmingly large, meaning:
“Ultimately, price is structurally pulled back to this level.”
■ USD/JPY (153.00)
Thursday 29/01
-
150.00 (0.704 bn)
-
152.50 (0.625 bn)
-
153.75 (1.0 bn)
Friday 30/01
-
149.75 (0.600 bn)
-
155.00 (0.864 bn)
The largest levels are:
-
153.75 (1.0 bn)
-
155.00 (0.864 bn)
With spot at 153.00, the primary magnet today is 153.75.
If this level is taken out, the path opens toward 155.00.
■ AUD/USD (0.7083)
Thursday 29/01
-
0.6800 (0.966 bn)
-
0.6825 (0.861 bn)
Friday 30/01
-
0.6800 (0.815 bn)
This is a super-massive magnet structure centered on 0.6800.
The current price 0.7083 is extremely far from the option zone.
This is a clear “overextended” condition.
Into the NY cut, there is powerful downside gravitational pull toward:
Below 0.7000, ultimately toward 0.6800
■ USD/CAD (1.3516)
Friday 30/01
-
1.3500 (0.964 bn)
A pinpoint massive magnet.
1.3500 is a forced convergence level.
■ USD/CHF (0.7654)
At this stage, no major option concentration.
Price action today will be trend-driven.
■ EUR/GBP (0.8659)
Currently, option influence is weak.
This pair is also technically driven today.
【Overall Structure】
-
EUR/USD → 1.1900 is the super-massive center of gravity (4.1 bn)
-
USD/JPY → 153.75 is today’s primary magnet
-
AUD/USD → 0.6800 is an abnormal gravitational point
-
USD/CAD → Forced convergence toward 1.3500
Trading Theme for Today
“A day when excessive moves are pulled back by massive options.”
This is not a trend-following day.
It is a classic NY-cut mean-reversion session:
Sell high → let price return to the option magnets.
Textbook option-driven market behavior.
