I am not finding any satisfactory solutions. Most dictionaries do not have this term as a single entry. Google translate calls this "schedule options broker," which does not make sense. I am not sure how to interpret it. Is it a forward contract broker? Is it an options broker?

Any help would be appreciated?

Notes to answerer
Asker: My understanding is that a "Terminoption" really is a "futures option," which is different than a "forward option." Thank you for your answer, however. And, no, I do not rely on google translate because, as you correctly commented, it is not a reliable source. Thank you! :)
