Summary

Good afternoon.

In the FpML equityOption scheme there is a following construction (choice) between two elements: futuresPriceValuation and optionsPriceValuation.

Questions:

1) is it true that if the equityValuation/futuresPriceValuation element is present in the FpML document (with value "true"), the equityValuation/valuationTimeType element will not be present?
2) In ISDA 2002 I found a description regarding the first element futuresPriceValuation, but I did not find any description of the second one (optionsPriceValuation) in ISDA 2002 and 2011.
Can you explain in what cases the second element is used in this choice?
To evaluate an option on an option (compounding option)?
Thank you.

Regards,
Maksym

    1) I think the reference to the future makes that the product will follow the time of the exchange where the future is traded. There is no need then to specify the valuation time type.
    2) optionsPriceValuation works the same as futuresPriceValuation for taking the ETD option as reference instead of an ETD future. Mechanically the product works the same way.
