Markets never react irrational . The expectation of market response is irrational. Very irrational ( if very is appropriate ) is the assumption every market is closed system i.e. does not depend on all other markets. That is however the foundation of waves and chart analysis.

SNB reserves are about 80% EUR. The strength of CHF has only one reason: capital inflow from PIIGS

Gold rumors are as speculative as gold futures. But if there is no physical gold backing all those ETFs and whatever that could be desastrous for the financial system. On the other side if we trust metal stocks LME shanghai and such by kitco there could be more copper, nickel and such than China Europe US could demand in a whole year for industry. Well I bought gold bullions and loonies already four years ago as one thing is for sure: don't trust paper money.

It is around 66% probable EUR crash in May and 77% in June. However don't underestimate .
It will be Lehman+Bear sized. I have always wondered how a political currency could survive the first headwind. Consequently I have USD and NOK and DKK accounts ( not! CHF) . It is obvious now EUR will not survive a northern gust.

Formally correct but ..it doesn't match the price chart of the put option ... however I fail to attach the chart. Is the futures' price according to your "formula" valid for commodity futures as well?
