Question: What is the underlying value of a fxoption. f.i. uee 145. is this EUR 1450 or EUR 14500?

Steve Meizinger's Response: Assuming EUR/USD is trading at 1.45, the ISE value is 1.45 *100 or 145. The notional dollar value for EUU, assuming an exchange rate of 1.45 is 100 * 145 or $14,500 per contract. The contract size will “float” based on the underlying exchange rate.
