Why do they multiply by contract size?Also why to hedge an amount we divide it by N(d1) *contract size.Is this a formula?thankyou May 1, 2019 at 4:08 am #514666 John MoffatKeymasterTopics: 57Replies: 54628☆☆☆☆☆But I explain all this in my lectures!!!If there is a fixed contract size (which there is always likely to be) then we need to divide my the contract size in order to get the number of contracts.
