How many monkeys have puts on the dollar right now. My spider sense is telling me it's a good trade not only to bet it will go down but to bet it will CRASH. (interest rates in Europe, QE2 tells me this). Any thoughts on th trade?

Cheers

starwinThe dollar is backed by oil. It's backed by the most stable economy. What more do you want? Damn Europeans.
