French term or phrase: "ventes de put euro / call devise"

This is part of a chart of data that has other items such as "eventual sales, eventual purchases" and it has to do with foreign currencies.

I wonder if someone knows what this term means?

Devise = currency

Thank you!!!

Sales of Euro puts / currency call

Explanation:
Although it looks like we essentially already got that sorted out.

I'm not sure why currency all is not pluralized too, and wonder if you might want to take the prerogative and do so...

-> Thanks for your 'agree' and for making us laugh Sharon! Please feel free to enter another answer Sharon, seeing as I got the order wrong.

neutral

cc in nyc: IMO: sales of euro puts / currency calls (I don't think that part was a joke) // TO SHARON: Perhaps the English pronunciation is being used, since the term is being used by folks who know the English term.

-> Hi CC: I'm perfectly happy for Sharon to enter another answer seeing as I got the order wrong. I got a bit mixed up because if the abbreviation EUR is used, then it goes before put.
