I run American/European synthetic equivalence often. This took some time to locate.

I recognized your name from yesterday's thread in the trading forum. What happened to the falling knives of yesterday? Or is it that some people fell on rising swords they could not see?:D

Do you trade options, and did you ever make a trade that would fit under this thread?

Also I want to add for those who did not read other threads that there is always the collar (with a long enough time, and correctly placed put and call strikes) whihc leads to trade with no risk to capital loss (the interest rate must be positive though and no dividend).

Would you mind saying which dealers you use to trade options on currencies? I will understand if you cannot share the info.
 
The arb was at Oanda, and it's been traded flat.

Oanda -- my nine partners and I thank you from the bottom of our collective hearts.
 
Forex -- you've proven yourself too stupid to live on more occasions than I can recall. No need to stop now. Please continue.

I also realize that someone of your limited intellect couldn't decipher the arb if it were staring you in the face.

Envy won't help you with your deficiencies.

There was also a triangular-arb via replication at Oanda which was expressed for a few months.

Very interesting.......I'm sure you made a good bit of money over the years by doing things that nobody else could figure out.

How often do these arb opportunities usually present themselves before they flatten out and dissapear?

Eric

They tend to last in dealer markets as the market is model-dependent.
