FX Market Update provides a quantitative overview of the currency market, including several valuation tools and monitors.

Looking at the signals from our short-term financial models, we currently observe significant misalignments in AUD/USD and AUD/CAD, which trade 1.9 and 1.5 standard deviations respectively below our model's estimate.

We remain bearish on AUD on a six- to 12-month horizon but taking the bullish signals from our short-term fair value models into account, we would consider to take advantage of the past week's increase in implied volatility, the negative skew and the positive carry by selling 1M 0.9400 AUD/USD put option.

EUR/NOK also trades with a significant 1.9 standard deviation above our short-term model estimate. Although both carry and the option smile make risk reversal an attractive strategy to position for corrections lower in EUR/NOK, we would be careful entering one to two-month short EUR/NOK positions as the NOK liquidity situation could worsen again in December.
