Recap 1320 upside target tagged first thing in the week. Struggling at 1320, eventually fall back down to Y+1. The test confirmed its strength and that put Y+2 in play and all news shock could do was delaying the inevitable to happen on Friday with even more explosive strength as shorts are trapped. Closed at Y+2.
Outlook Option expiration likes to tag round numbers for ES and SPX. And then swinging 10+ pts around these numbers. A quick zoom to B+2 (1340) is not out of the question and selloff to B-2 at 1300 is also in the card. Pay close attention to the round number levels (1300, 1310, 1320, 1330, 1340) to participate in the swings.

Recap
Aussie tried to go higher yet there was not enough volume. Went back down in consolidation style. Similar to loonie, chose to print the week extreme at the end ...
