Plus l'augmentation du cours de la livre est forte et plus les gains du détenteur d'une position acheteur sur contrats à terme sont importants. Les profits du vendeur d'options, par contre, sont limités aux primes reçues le 1er mars, à moins qu'il n'essaie de racheter les contrats originaux et de vendre de nouvelles séries avec prix de levée supérieurs (soit 1,70$ US ou 1,75$ US).
