Listen Later

In the Options Trading Concepts Live segment, hosts Nick Battista and Mike Butler welcomed Glen Frybarger and discussed the resurgent U.S. dollar following positive GDP numbers. Glenn Freiberger provided analysis on FX markets ahead of the Federal Reserve announcement. The dollar index (PXY) rebounded to just under 100, recovering the previous month's losses. Notable moves included EUR/USD dropping from above 1.17 to near 1.14, representing a significant 300 pip move. Freiberger shared research showing U.S. dollar positions historically perform best with modest profit targets of 20-30 pips, typically reached within two days. Dollar-yen showed the most consistent positive performance over three years. The hosts positioned accordingly, with Butler entering a dollar-yen long position targeting 100 pips and Batista going long USD/CAD with a 20-pip target.
