There are some big tiers for EUR/USD, but they are quite far from the current spot level to have a lot of impact/importance. Those at 1.1000 could be a factor if dollar sentiment rebounds strongly, but it’s unlikely we’ll see such a big turnaround, apart from the headline surprise or until we hit US retail sales data.

Next, there is modest action for USD/JPY at 132.00 which could provide some floor price action before it moves.

However, given the prevailing market conditions, today’s expirations do not seem very important. Instead, I would discuss paying attention to the techniques outlined here.
