MARCH EURO–12/24/2009

The March Euro is up 60 ticks at 1.4394 this morning as I write.  The included chart shows that the March Euro is bouncing firmly off of the green 200 day moving average.  The directional movement indicators are still bearish and the ADX line is still rising, suggesting to me that another down leg in the Euro is probable after this short bounce.  The currency markets close at noon today, so I recommend holding our current positions as is for now and enjoy the holiday weekend.

 Followers should be long one March Euro (1.3850 strike) put from 121 ticks and short 2 March Euro (1.3400 strike) put options from 67 ticks each for an overall credit of 13 ticks or $162.50 gross.

You should also be long one March Euro (1.5750 strike) call option at 134 ticks and short 2 March Euro (1.6100 strike) calls at 75 ticks each or $937.50 each. 

You should also be short one March Euro futures contract form 1.4769, and short one March Euro (1.5100 strike) put at 535 ticks, or $6687.50.

 March Euro options expire in 71 days.
