Fig 2.4.1 provides the route over time by which the downbet reaches the expiry profile of Fig 1.5.1. The time to expiry has been expanded in order to include a yearly binary. In this example if the underlying now falls from $100 to $98 the one year downbet only increases to 66.61. The best bit is that if you are long the one year downbet and the market rallies from $100 to $102 the downbet only falls to 35.53. Earlier during the book’s introduction binaries were deemed to be highly dextrous instruments; this example proves that even the most dull, conservative, risk-averse pension fund manager who doesn’t have the stomach for the standard +45° P&L profile of AAA-rated multinational stock can find, in the short term, a more boring, safer way to gain exposure to financial instruments.
