Updated Sep 24, 2020

European-style currency options can be priced using the Garman-Kohlhagen formula which is a variant on the Black-Scholes option pricing formula.

We describe the derivations of both extensions here, and then give a brief discussion on the use of implied volatilities instead of prices for communication between option traders.
