Gate News reports that on March 17, foreign exchange traders are heavily buying safe-haven instruments to prepare for potential extreme volatility. Traders are closely monitoring developments in the Middle East to get ready for possible market shocks. After the initial impact of the war outbreak and oil prices soaring to $100 per barrel, investors are taking advantage of the current relatively calm period to buy low-probability but high-reward options. Demand for hedging options against extreme exchange rate fluctuations has increased, with a notable rise in butterfly options (a strategy that combines multiple options contracts to hedge against extreme volatility). The demand for euro-dollar options reached its highest level in 11 months in early March.
