Option Pricing with Exponential Effect Function
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider option hedging and pricing for a large agent. The large agent affects the market’s demand-supply equilibrium and, therefore, the market prices of financial instruments. By assuming a specific large agent’s effect function for the underlying asset we derive the corresponding effect function for call options on that asset. As we show, the price of a call option in our model is the solution to a Black-Scholes partial differential equation with a modified terminal condition. Finally we estimate our model parameters from option market data.

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...

متن کاملPricing 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...
متن کاملMarkov Chain Analogue Year Daily Rainfall Model and Pricing of Rainfall Derivatives
In this study we model the daily rainfall occurrence using Markov Chain Analogue Yearmodel (MCAYM) and the intensity or amount of daily rainfall using three different probability distributions; gamma, exponential and mixed exponential distributions. Combining the occurrence and intensity model we obtain Markov Chain Analogue Year gamma model (MCAYGM), Markov Chain Analogue Year exponentia...
متن کاملOption Pricing Methods for Estimating Capacity Shortages
Uncertain demand combined with a positive lead time for adding capacity creates the risk of capacity shortage during the lead time. Accurate shortage estimation is very important to determine a capacity expansion policy. In this paper, we investigate four kinds of option pricing methods to estimate the shortage during a fixed lead time under the assumption of an exponential trend for demand gro...
