Hi, I’m looking for a good place to put the swap and forward points around a Vanilla FX Option (Put/Call). Is there any guidance available on this?
Thanks & regards.
The standard FIX 5.0 fields for these attributes are:
- For outright quote: BidForwardPoints(189) or OfferForwardPoints(191), For outright fill: LastForwardPoints(2365)
- For swap quote: LegBidForwardPoints(1067) or LegOfferForwardPoints(1068), For swap fill: LegLastForwardPoints(1-73)
- SwapPoints(1069)
Thank you Dean for the reply, much appreciated. This is for TCR>
Would we use different tags for the the reference rates (FX Options) vs those exchange rates used in trade types such as outrights/swaps etc?
