Pricing American Options under Stochastic Volatility : A New Method Using
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a new numerical method for pricing American call options when the volatility of the price of the underlying stock is stochastic. By exploiting a log-linear relationship of the optimal exercise boundary with respect to volatility changes, we derive an integral representation of an American call price and the early exercise premium which holds under stochastic volatility. This representation is used to develop a numerical method for pricing the American options based on an approximation of the optimal exercise boundary by Chebyshev polynomials. Numerical results show that our numerical approach can quickly and accurately price American call options both under stochastic and/or constant volatility.

Option pricing under the double stochastic volatility with double jump model
In this paper, we deal with the pricing of power options when the dynamics of the risky underling asset follows the double stochastic volatility with double jump model. We prove efficiency of our considered model by fast Fourier transform method, Monte Carlo simulation and numerical results using power call options i.e. Monte Carlo simulation and numerical results show that the fast Fourier tra...

In this paper, we study the problem of pricing multi-asset American-style options in the Heston-Hull-White model. It is widely recognized that our intended model compared to the original Heston model, due to its stochastic interest rate and stochastic volatility, is more compatible with the realistic of the market. We demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the our proposed method by verifyi...

This paper proposes a new approximation method for pricing barrier options with discrete monitoring under stochastic volatility environment. In particular, the integration-by-parts formula and the duality formula in Malliavin calculus are effectively applied in an asymptotic expansion approach. First, the paper derives an asymptotic expansion for generalized Wiener functionals. After it is appl...

Nowadays, options are common financial derivatives. For this reason, by increase of applications for these financial derivatives, the problem of options pricing is one of the most important economic issues. With the development of stochastic models, the need for randomly computational methods caused the generation of a new field called financial engineering. In the financial engineering the pre...
متن کاملComponentwise Splitting Methods for Pricing American Options Under Stochastic Volatility
Efficient numerical methods for pricing American options using Heston’s stochastic volatility model is proposed. Based on this model the price of a European option can be obtained by solving a two-dimensional parabolic partial differential equation. For an American option the early exercise possibility leads to a lower bound for the price of the option. This price can be computed by solving a l...
