Option and futures are two different concepts. Foreign exchange futures are also called currency futures, and foreign exchange futures are also called interest rate futures.

Foreign exchange option is a kind of option. Compared with other kinds of options such as interest rate options and futures options, foreign exchange options buy and sell foreign exchange, that is, the option buyer obtains a right after paying the corresponding option fee to the option seller, that is, after paying a certain amount of option fee, the option buyer has the right to buy and sell the currency agreed by the seller at the agreed expiration date at the exchange rate and amount agreed by both parties in advance, and the buyer with this right also has the right not to execute the above-mentioned sales contract.
