Keep in mind, none of these include markup so you will have to account for that
Risk Reversal selling 90 strike puts (23 delta) cheapens the long call by 1.38% vs the forward that gives you 1-for-1
downside exposure beginning at 97.84. We can change the downside strike to wherever the client is comfortable
getting long USDJPY. The one year low in USDJPY has been 79.38

I'd favor less leverage with some protection (out of the moneyness) built in on the sold option. but would love your
input

The ly forward points are pretty accurate on bberg.
The option struck atmf will cost around 4.10% of notional (no markup included) ly volatility is around 10.3% at the
moment.
It depends on how you look at it - if you are ok without the downside protection, I would do the forward. If the client is
qualified to do forwards though, they could also explore a risk reversal to lower cost and give some protection in the
event of a correction.
What type of client is it and what size are they thinking to do?
Kind regards,
Harlin
