Jin10 data reported on September 25, citing foreign media, that the US Non-farm Payrolls (NFP) data for September, which is set to be released on October 3, may be delayed due to the US government shutdown. The forex options market has already priced this in. October 10 and October 17 are seen as the most likely release dates after the data delay, as demand for options expiring on these dates has increased. October 10 is the most closely watched, attracting the highest demand, and the additional fluctuation risk premium is also the highest. This demand and premium stand out significantly in a very low exchange rate fluctuation environment.
