In the old days you could buy options on dmark futures at the cme, but the volume dried up there. The futures have largely dried up too, even though the dmark was once the top imm currency. Now though, the cme's eurocurrency futures and options contracts are popular and liquid, so you could use that vehicle easily. Contract sizes are of course extremely large compared to the amount of money needed to margin positions on futures. This though is a dangerous play in that your timing has to be pinpoint perfect to make money on a nice ride without getting shaken out and/or taken to the cleaners! I mean, if you take a position and get stubborn....if you're wrong you get royally toasted.
