đź“Ť The panic leg here is because we are reaching the endgame in the economic cycle. There is a risk of Turkish banks defaulting on this leg so watch-out for any exposure to specific sectors. If the operation demonstrated is a successful attack, then we have the final âś… for those trading the macro move called last year:
EM FX looks extremely vulnerable for any overshoots on the risk front, local banks have been attempting to protect the 6.80x, if we can hold for today then we will start to see momentum kicking in. Turkey looks awful on the fundamental front and political too, a complete disaster mismanagement of the crisis.
The main thing is that 7.80x should be restrained via Fed => the attack on the final base can be brutal .. let's see if it plays out.

Notice how USDTRY is dislocated from the board, even if risk moves onto the front foot there is little international trade to help Turkey. I am starting to build a bias that TRY weakness is coming but with Fed sitting on the USD offer, perhaps weaker TRY is better played through RUB.
