# EKI Pivot TARF
{% hint style="info" %}
The EKI Pivot TARF is a variation to the standard Pivot TARF, which offers a broader range by introducing EKI barriers.\
\
This features a pair of European style KI barriers on the client's OTM obligations. Thus there is only an OTM settlement when the Fixing Rate occurs above / below a given knock-In Barrier Rate; otherwise if the fixing is between the Strike and the KI barrier there are no obligations on either party. The addition of the European barrier will tend to lead to a worse Strike Rate than on a vanilla Pivot version.
{% endhint %}
### **Payoff Diagram:**
### **Payoff at Expiry:**
At expiry if EURUSD fixes:
* Above the High EKI Barrier, the client will find itself obligated to sell EUR / buy USD at the (Put) High Strike level on 200% of the Notional.
* Between the High EKI Barrier and the (Put) High Strike, the client can participate in the favourable movement and transact at the improved Spot Rate.
* Above the Pivot Level, but below the (Put) High Strike, the client is fully protected and can sell EUR / buy USD at the (Put) High Strike on 100% of the Notional subject to the target condition. Once the target is reached the strategy is cancelled and the client will become unhedged.
* Below the Pivot Level, but above the (Call) Low Strike, the client is fully protected and can sell USD / buy EUR at the (Call) Low Strike on 100% of the Notional subject to the target condition. Once the target is reached the strategy is cancelled and the client will become unhedged.
* Between the Low EKI Barrier and the (Call) Low Strike, the client can participate in the favourable movement and transact at the improved Spot Rate.
* Below the Low EKI Barrier, the client will find itself obligated to sell USD / buy EUR at the (Call) Low Strike level on 200% of the Notional.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://eako-capital.gitbook.io/eako-user-guide/eki-pivot-tarf.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
