CAUTION. ABSOLUTELY NOT WORTH PARTICIPATING!!! Looks great until you check out the NET gains for wins. See example below. You could do MUCH better buying/selling the underlying or options.

Your bet is :
Win USD500 if Intel stock never touches 37.2 at any time before the close of trading on 1-APR-02.
This is a No-Touch bet. You win the payout if the market never touches (nor trades through) the given barrier
price (37.2) before the expiry date of the bet (1-APR-02).

Cost of this bet : USD485.5 This means that :

If you lose, you will lose USD485.5
If you win, you will receive USD500
(however, since you paid USD485.5 to acquire the bet, your net win is USD14.5)
