Forex volatility - where to find it?
Forex volatility
The past week was rich in macro events, mainly in the form of meetings and decisions of the world's most important central banks. The week lasting and thus the end of September should be calmer, however, as you know, volatility is an ally of speculators - so where to look for it? Based on the quotations of implied volatility for currency options, HFT Brokers made a forecast of the most popular currency pairs in the context of the possible range of movements.
From the presented graphics, it can be concluded that the pairs with the yen will remain in the lead - GBP / JPY and NZD / JPY, and the leader among calm instruments remains USD / CHF and EUR / USD, which clearly do not impress with the amplitude of fluctuations recently.
Traders who are also interested in other markets than the currencies themselves should definitely be interested in the situation on stock exchange indices, in particular the German DAX, where the volatility is impressive and the relative cost of the transaction is very competitive with currency pairs.
