pricing of commodity futures contract by using of spot price jump-diffusion process

چکیده

futures contract is one of the most important derivatives that is used in financial markets in all over the world to buy or sell an asset or commodity in the future. pricing of this tool depends on expected price of asset or commodity at the maturity date. according to this, theoretical futures pricing models try to find this expected price in order to use in the futures contract. so in this article, three futures pricing models have been considered. in the first model, one-factor pricing model without spot price jump has been presented. in this model futures price of commodity is a function of spot price and remaining time to maturity. in the others, the models have been expanded by using jump-diffusion processes and stochastic jump in spot price. then, to empirically study the models, nymex wti crude oil futures price data has been used and parameters have been estimated with kalman filter algorithm. the empirical results show that the one factor model with uniform jump is suitable to explain the crude oil spot price behavior and its futures price. this model and estimated parameters provide the useful tool to predict nymex wti oil future prices.

Pricing of Futures Contracts by Considering Stochastic Exponential Jump Domain of Spot Price

Derivatives are alternative financial instruments which extend traders opportunities to achieve some financial goals. They are risk management instruments that are related to a data in the future, and also they react to uncertain prices. Study on pricing futures can provide useful tools to understand the stochastic behavior of prices to manage the risk of price volatility. Thus, this study eval...

Option Pricing on Commodity Prices Using Jump Diffusion Models

In this paper, we aim at developing a model for option pricing to reduce the risks associated with Ethiopian commodity prices fluctuations. We used the daily closed Unwashed Lekempti grade 5 (ULK5) coffee and Whitish Wollega Sesame Seed Grade3 (WWSS3) prices obtained from Ethiopia commodity exchange (ECX) market to analyse the prices fluctuations.The natures of log-returns of the prices exhibit a...

Advances in pricing commodity futures: Multifactor models

In recent years commodity markets have experienced a dramatic growth in trading volume, the variety of contracts and underlying commodities. Futures as well as forward are contracts for future delivery of an underlying asset. The asset can be a physical commodity (corn, oil, precious metals, and so on) or financial instruments (bonds, currencies, stocks indices, and so on). Commodities differ f...

Commodity Futures Price Prediction , an Artificial Intelligence Approach by Ernest

This thesis describes an attempt to predict the next value in a financial time series using various artificial techniques. The time series in question consists of daily values for commodities futures. First, an artificial neural network is used as a predictor. Then the neural network is augmented with a genetic algorithm. The genetic algorithm first is used to select the parameters for the neur...

A new technique to estimate the risk-neutral processes in jump-diffusion commodity futures models

In order to price commodity derivatives, it is necessary to estimate the market prices of risk as well as the functions of the stochastic processes of the factors in the model. However, the estimation of the market prices of risk is an open question in the jump-diffusion derivative literature when a closed-form solution is not known. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for estimating the...
