Parser for Bloomberg index equity option tickers. The rationale for having this parsing is to be able to extract instrument indicatives from a Bloomberg ticker string or {@link com.opengamma.id.ExternalId}, without looking up the instrument via Bloomberg security field loading. This allows the caller to avoid expending Bloomberg security field lookup quota.
A legal Bloomberg equity ticker looks like this:FVX3 P17.5 Comdty
. See the Bloomberg documentation for more details. All dates are represented as {@link javax.time.calendar.LocalDate}. For greater accuracy, users should perform a Bloomberg security lookup.
The idiom for using this class is to create a parser instance around the Bloomberg ticker, and then call various getters on the instance to read the indicatives.
