From the options data, the open interest in cyclical options has been continuously declining, with this week's open interest accounting for less than 7% of the total open interest. This week's central bank annual meeting also did not show a significant increase in implied volatility (IV), and the market remains relatively calm, making waiting seem like the best strategy. The options data indicates that the market is in a period of high calmness, with a solid term structure and a gradual decrease in the options market's expectations for future volatility.
