For barrier and digital/binary options, it can be useful to include the spot rate at the time the option was executed to make it easier to know whether the option needs to move \"up\" or \"down\" to be triggered.'

Forward points represent the interest rate differential between the two currencies traded and are quoted as a preminum or a discount.
