25 2013 FX Product Guide and Calendar Nomenclature CME Group disseminates currency market data over a ticker feed to the direct quote vendor s networks. Currency options ticker symbols in some cases are the same as the currency futures ticker symbols (EC for both futures and options for EUR/USD). Here, the letters C and P are added for calls and puts, respectively. In other cases, unique option codes are denoted (CJ for calls and PJ for puts for JPY/USD options). Even though these contracts have different option codes from the futures, the letters C and P are still part of the message. Each individual section of this calendar contains the specific ticker symbols. The same codes are used for pit-traded and electronicallytraded currency options (not traded side by side so different ticker codes are not required for the two trading venues). These currency ticker symbols combine with standard calendar month codes: January = F February = G March = H April = J May = K June = M July = N August = Q September = U October = V November = X December = Z Calendar year suffix 2013 = 13 specifies the year of individual currency futures contract months. 21
26 cmegroup.com/fx Number designations are added to reflect specific exercise prices. Weekly options have separate codes that were designed to include the number of the weekly expiration (one through five) combined with a unique letter for the specific currency. The weekly options will also include the month and year indicator along with the C and P for calls and puts (1XH13 C = the first weekly EUR/USD March 2013 call option, 4JM13 P = the fourth weekly JPY/USD June 2013 put option). Sample ticker symbol transmissions for currency options: A price transmitted with the symbol ECH13 C9100 is the price for the March call options for EUR/USD futures. A price transmitted with the symbol PJM13 P8400 is the price for the June put options for JPY/USD futures. A price transmitted with the symbol 2XH13 P9050 is the price for the Week put options on the nearby March quarterly cycle EUR/USD futures. A price transmitted with the symbol 5JH13 C8350 is the price for the Week call options on the nearby March quarterly cycle JPY/USD futures. These ticker symbols are accompanied by price information over the ticker feed to the direct quote vendors. Some quote vendors choose to get their ticker feed directly from CME Group; others may obtain the information from one of the direct vendors. Please note that individual quote vendors assign their own nomenclature to define CME Group quotations (see Quote Vendor Symbols on page 117). 22

Premium The price paid by the purchaser of an option to the grantor (seller). Implied volatility An estimate of the future volatility of the underlying contract that can be input into a theoretical valuation model to solve for an option premium. Choose Your Style We also offer two expiration styles. Having a choice of American- or European-style options provides you the ability to execute a larger variety of strategies based on your trading style. European-style options Can only be exercised at maturity and are automatically exercised on expiration if in-the-money, based on a daily fix calculated and published by CME Group at 9:00 a.m. CT, 10:00 a.m. ET on the day of expiration.* * For information on the dailly fix, please refer to the following Web link, cmegroup.com/currfixprice, to get the latest information on the procedure used to calculate the daily fix and the following link, cmegroup.com/fxfixing-price, to get the most recently published daily fix values.

CME Globex Electronic Markets: FXD Tick Size 0.01 index points ($10.00) for outrights; index points ($5.00) for calendar spreads. No price limits. However, price banding* on CME Globex is in effect at ±0.60 for outrights (60 ticks), ±0.05 for calendar spreads (5 ticks). * For CME Globex trading, automated price banding prevents execution of orders at prices falling outside of the last sale, best bid or best offer and ± the price band. Price banding prevents the entry of limit orders more than a pre-determined amount above the last price in the case of bids and more than the same predetermined amount below the last price in the case of offers. The band shadows the last foreign exchange futures price as it reacts to new transaction prices, higher bids and lower offers. 40
45 2013 FX Product Guide and Calendar In recent years, other major foreign currencies have become the reserve currency of choice, but the U.S. dollar still remains the dominant currency for financial transactions. Thus, many market participants desire trading baskets of currencies vs. the U.S. dollar. Dollar index futures, at CME and elsewhere, have historically been based on factors such as competitiveness of U.S. goods on foreign markets. But for many market participants these contracts presented difficulties, as they needed to be hedged with odd numbers of futures contracts to balance or lay off risks. The Dow Jones CME FX$INDEX futures are currency-weighted to reflect the economic realities as indicated by current Fed data. This ensures that institutional traders, hedgers and market participants trading these futures may more precisely and conveniently lay-off risk vs. a basket of very liquid CME FX futures contracts. Plus, when integrated into a complete portfolio of CME FX futures and options, this contract allows for even greater margin synergies with underlying products.
