Currency hedging with OTM Put instruments:
As shown in the figure both At-The-Money and In-The-Money rates in EURUSD put option seems costlier. One looks expensive and the other calculates high delta at 60481.82 when exchange rate becomes In-The-Money.
We reckon EURUSD put with delta at this figure could be expensive as one can prefer alternative for hedging which is Futures. Although we foresee further slumps in this pair we recommend avoiding ATM & ITM puts at this juncture bears have already utilized the downswings optimally.
