A long call Assume we buy one CAD 26 December USD 0.80 call. C0 = USD 0.03 At expiration, our profit/loss will depend on the CAD price.
Analysis Profit/loss is a function of CAD price at expiration and the original option premium Profit/Loss = max [0, (ST-E)] - C0 Break-even CAD price = E + C0 We make a profit when the option is in-the-money, and we lose when the option is out-the-money.
