A latent option contract that begins to function as a normal option only once a certain price level is reached before expiration.
Technically, this type of contract is not an option until a certain price is met, so if the price is never reached it is as if the contract never existed. Knock-ins are a type of barrier option that may be either down-and-in option or an up-and-in option.
