Both currencies have sold off recently (SGD 5% and INR 3%) since Sept Ist on liquidation and position squaring. I am worried that things will get worse in the near term before recovering. So I think we switch from outright forwards into options. Our recommendation is: - Unwind SGD forward and enter into a 1 month SGD call option. We are back to breakeven on this position and I do not want to go into a loss. A 1 month SGD call will cost 1.2%. If it snaps back then we are long but if the unwind continues we have no more downside exposure - Unwind INR Forward. We are now down $150K on the position since inception. INR has sold off 8% since early Aug. I do think INR is cheap but remains vulnerable to worse macro news. We would recommend unwinding the forward and buying a 47.00 Call on $20MM (twice what we have on via the forward) notional. Cost around 50bps. Are you free to discuss?
