This is an important extension of the original Black-Scholes pricing
model that has been applied to the problem of valuing a range of options on
futures, including currency options on futures.
Topic 11.2, A
Note on Pricing Forward and Futures, introduces you to futures contracts and
develops some important arbitrage relationships.
Finally, the option pricing model is developed in topic 11.3, Pricing
