Riskfreetrading,
Who are you? I know who Atticus is, but really, who are you...(re:....people here have good hearts)? And I know you can do the math, but do you also like energy drinks?

Quote from riskfreetrading:

Could I suggest that we also tell him that we can accept him if he can avoid attacking personalities, and even better if he can send a note to Atticus to put things back to normal? I think many people would feel better, and he would be welcomed back. /b I am sure most people here have good hearts, and would not oppose giving second and even more chances./b

Atticus: thanks for the puzzle and
Riskfreetrading: thanks for the partial explanation.

Some people are afraid of puzzles and new concepts.
It is helpful for those of us that want to learn more.
Options are useful to some for hedging, others - trading.
I'm not sure how I want to participate in options but
learning the greeks, Black-Sholes and American versus
European option differences is necessary to trade
in this world. And this is work, not sport.

This site has some helpful and simple explanation of exotic bets.
Ironically you can't trade this if you are from the US. This is probably considered gambling by the govt. that knows what is best for America. What a f**ked up country.

Thanks Atticus you always makes us think.

Amen to that. Oanda does offer American and European touch bets on FX, but they're the only retail dealer for US residents.

Atticus,

What is the equivalent trade using OANDA for a 1.60 CALL Option (buy) on EUR/USD.

How can I implement this using Oanda's box options?

I posted this question at Oanda, and got one response, saying not possible. But, I heard it's possible with exotic options.

Thanks,

Frank

Hi Frank. You can't replicate a vanilla call with touch options.

Atticus,

Thanks for the reply. Ok, so now I believe it.

I tried to come up with something in a Demo, but didn't have any luck either.

Is there anything that would come close to a vanilla call?
