Trade tips:
On trading grounds, at spot reference: 144.942 levels, we advocate buying tunnel option spreads using 145.315 as upper strikes and 144.411 as lower strikes.
Alternatively, one can initiate shorts in futures contracts of mid-month tenors with a view to arresting potential downside risks as the underlying pair is on the verge of extending price dips which is 3w lows.
