holy @#$%& holy @#$%&
I am having huge trouble distinguishing b/t the valuation formulas for the different types of forward contracts (currency, interest, FRA).

read my post in

Valuing Currency Forward Contracts prior to maturity

they are not diff formulas at all, beneth the diff variables is actually the same simple concept being applied to diff assets

if you can understand that well, you would not need to memorise anything, the formulas make perfect sense

it is the same base formula. just substitute the numbers with what was given on the question. the dividend yield part is a bit tricky though.

btw, I am thinking of purely reading this on Schweser. did they skip any part at all? I do this because the last time i read derivatives on lvl1 with cfai text I forgot everything when I start doing the eoc questions.
