EXPIRY RATES RULES
GENERAL INFORMATION

EUOptions offers a wide range of asset classes for its clients including stocks, currencies, commodities and the major indexes. If you want to trade an asset which is not available on our platform, please contact us by phone or email, Analyst@euoptions.com, and we will do our best to add the assets you required.
All rates are calculated on the basis of the latest known rates provided by Reuters.

The following expiry rules apply to all assets according to asset class:

Currencies: (Bid + Ask) / 2 *

Stocks: (Bid + Ask) / 2 *

Commodities: (Bid + Ask) / 2 *

Indices: except S & P 500 S & P Future Future Nikkei, Nasdaq Futures: last quote

S & P 500, S & P Future Future Nikkei, Nasdaq Futures: (Bid + Ask) / 2


Relevant terms for calculating the expiry rate are:

Bid: the last known price before the expiry date of options to sell an asset quoted by Reuters

Ask: the last known price before the expiry date of options to purchase an asset quoted by Reuters

Last Quoted Price: the last known before the expiry date of options that was actually paid for the asset. This price may be identical or different from the Bid or the Ask.

Indices such as Dow Jones or FTSE are calculated on the basis of the last traded price of all the stocks listed in the Index and, hence, Reuters creates last price for the index. A market participant can buy only stocks or Exchange Traded Funds (ETF) and not the actual index.

Stocks and currencies have quotes of Bid and Ask. Regarding stocks of Citigroup and Google, for example, there is a price to purchase the asset and a price to sell the asset, consequently EUOptions calculates the expiry price as the mid price equivalent to (Bid + Ask) / 2.

For more information, including rules concerning the expiry of each specific asset traded on the platform, please see Asset Index.
