when calculating the interest rate option, i need to cal. profit and loss of ticks when exercise the price.
however, why i calculate the foreign currency option, i do not need to cal. the ticks.
really confusing about the option.
thank you very much. appreciate.
March 23, 2015 at 10:54 pm #238526I often calculate profit or loss directly from PL per contract and amount of contract, not via ticks. By either way, it return the same result.
I though it is acceptable.
Mr. Moffat, what is your advice here?
Thank sir in advance!

(miyukit: you will find the free lectures on both currency and interest rate options helpful)
