Fair use rationale for Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg
Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Explanation in terms of exchange rate
Thanks, Nbarth, for explaining FX options in terms of an option on the exchange rate. I've always thought that to be the easiest and most direct way of thinking of FX options. Finnancier (talk) 03:32, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Possible Improvements for ease of Understanding
Thank you to who ever wrote this article to begin with. As a non-finance minded individual, it might be easier to consider the whole page in terms of one example. For instance, in the terms section, if you were able to relate the "ratio of notionals" explanation back to the earlier GBPUSD example, it might be easier to understand. Additionally, if more explanation (or relation to the "example section" could be added to the "Hedging with FX Options" section, I think this would also help to clarify things. I'm still not entirely clear on the point of Hedging with options.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.26.132.183 (talk) 07:47, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
