Goldilocks' Comments and Global Economic News Tuesday Evening 10-17-23
Good evening Dinar Recaps,
"While broader FX options have seen their prices rise to reflect the risk of the Middle East conflict escalating, there has been a particular focus on the two-month expiry date, which includes key central bank policy announcements in December."
Forex options traders are eyeing December 14th as the next trade opportunity. This is when their options trades are coming due.
Options trading allows you to buy a currency at a present rate with the option to redeem it later in the event a currency holding rises.
The war in the Middle East is beginning to create price distortions and volatile prices due to fluctuations in economic conditions.
Protection tools are already being talked about in case the currency does devalue. If prices go to a higher value and stays, options traders will be redeeming their currency for a profit.
If new circumstances such as the rebuilding of an economy create the need for a rise in the values of currencies because of this war, a repricing event for currencies will commence.

Countries involved in the Middle Eastern conflict at the present time either directly or indirectly will be affected.
Trade relationships still continue during a war. When a country changes its exchange rate due to a war, it will affect the trade relationships of the imports and exports shared between countries.
Remember, 80% of exchange rates happen on the water through shipping port contracts and the new digital payment systems influencing these rates.
Watch the water.

The yen was pinned close to the key 150 per dollar level, keeping investors on edge for any signs of intervention by the Japanese authorities.

In a bid to reduce reliance on the US dollar and minimize external influences, Russian President Vladimir Putin has called on members of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) to enhance the use of their national currencies in trade. The move is seen as part of a broader trend among developing countries to seek alternatives to the dominant US dollar in international trade.
