Large FX option expiries at 1.1400-1.1450 for EUR/USD and 161.75-162.00 for USD/JPY could limit price swings early Monday.
EUR/USD faces notable option expiries at 1.1400 and 1.1450, which may act as support and resistance levels to start the week. The 1.1400 level aligns closely with the 200-hour moving average at 1.1397, potentially adding technical support against further declines.
Dollar sentiment remains a primary driver for the pair, though US futures point to a cautious start. Mixed risk sentiment ahead of European trading could keep price action range-bound near these expiries.
USD/JPY option expiries at 161.75 and 162.00 may have limited impact as intervention risks overshadow technical levels. Market focus remains on potential yen moves by Japanese authorities rather than expiry-related barriers.
