Benchmark 1-month option implied volatility gains reflect data and Fed risk
However, 1-week implied vol steady 7.7 - within 7.0/8.0 range since Feb 15
Shows lower risk of volatility or extended FX losses in very short term
Option risk reversals haven't yet added premium for EUR puts/USD calls
That could suggest the risk of deeper EUR/USD declines hasn't yet increased
Option barriers tipped 1.0500 and 1.0450 and 1.0482 is years low/supports
Expect threat/break of those levels to boost aforementioned option premiums
