Forex Option Chain

Currency Trading Online : Exotic Currency Options

Finally, there are several 'exotic' currency options which are available for trading. I have never traded them myself, but they are quite popular, so here they are:

  • One touch option - pays a fixed amount if the market touches a set price
  • No touch option - pays a fixed amount if the market doe not touch a set price
  • Double no touch - pays a fixed amount if two prices remain untouched ( used for sideways trending strategies where the currency is range bound )
  • Double one touch - as above but one price is touched
  • Digital - pays a fixed amount if the price is above or equal to at expiry

OK - that's it on currency options, now let's put it all together into a planned strategy to build our currency trading business in simple steps.
