  • Computation of Binomial Option Pricing Model with Parallel
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by KHALSA PUBLICATIONS I S S N 2 2 7 8 - 5 6 1 2 Volume 11 Number 5 International Journal of Management and Information T e c h n o l o g y Computation Of Binomial Option Pricing Model With Parallel Processing On A Linux Cluster Harya Widiputra Faculty of Information Technology, Perbanas Institute Jakarta, Indonesia [email protected] ABSTRACT Binary Option Pricing Model (BOPM) is one approach that can be utilized to calculate the value of either call or put option. BOPM generally works by building a binomial tree diagram, also known as lattice diagram to explore all possible option values that occur based on the intrinsic price of the underlying asset in a range of specific time period. Due to its basic characteristics BOPM is renowned for its longer lead times in calculating option values while also acknowledged as a technique that can provide an assessment of the most fair option value. Therefore, this study aims to shorten the BOPM completion time of calculating the value of an option by building a computer cluster and presently implement the BOPM algorithm into a form that can be run in parallel processing. As an outcome, a Linux-based computer cluster has been built and conversion of BOPM algorithm so that it can be executed in parallel has been performed and also implemented using Python in this research. Conclusively, results of conducted experiments confirm that the implementation of BOPM algorithm in a form that can be executed in parallel and its application on a computer cluster was able to limit the growth of the completion time whilst at the same time maintain quality of calculated option values.

They are derivative instruments that can be considered a B yes‐or‐no proposition—either the event happens or it does not. Binary options are considered binary because there are only two po- tential outcomes at expiration: 0 or 100; 0 and 100 refer to the settlement value of a binary option and could be viewed in dollars. At expiration, if you are incorrect, you do not make anything ($0), and if you are correct, you make up to $100. The next section will go into further detail on the set- tlement value of binary options. ON WHAT ASSEThttp://www.pbookshop.com CLASSES ARE BINARY OPTIONS AVAILABLE?

  • Total Return Swap • Exchange the Total Economic Performance of a Specific Asset for Another Cash Flow
    Total return swap • Exchange the total economic performance of a specific asset for another cash flow. total return of asset Total return Total return payer receiver LIBOR + Y bp Total return comprises the sum of interests, fees and any change-in-value payments with respect to the reference asset. A commercial bank can hedge all credit risk on a loan it has originated. The counterparty can gain access to the loan on an off-balance sheet basis, without bearing the cost of originating, buying and administering the loan. 1 The payments received by the total return receiver are: 1. The coupon c of the bond (if there were one since the last payment date Ti − 1) + 2. The price appreciation ( C ( T i ) − C ( T i − 1 ) ) of the underlying bond C since the last payment (if there were only). 3. The recovery value of the bond (if there were default). The payments made by the total return receiver are: 1. A regular fee of LIBOR + sTRS + 2. The price depreciation ( C ( T i − 1 ) − C ( T i ) ) of bond C since the last payment (if there were only). 3. The par value of the bond C if there were a default in the meantime). The coupon payments are netted and swap’s termination date is earlier than bond’s maturity. 2 Some essential features 1. The receiver is synthetically long the reference asset without having to fund the investment up front. He has almost the same payoff stream as if he had invested in risky bond directly and funded this investment at LIBOR + sTRS.

  • On Black-Scholes Equation, Black- Scholes Formula and Binary Option Price
    On Black-Scholes Equation, Black- Scholes Formula and Binary Option Price Chi Gao 12/15/2013 Abstract: I. Black-Scholes Equation is derived using two methods: (1) risk-neutral measure; (2) - hedge. II. The Black-Scholes Formula (the price of European call option is calculated) is calculated using two methods: (1) risk-neutral pricing formula (expected discounted payoff) (2) directly solving the Black-Scholes equation with boundary conditions III. The two methods in II are proved to be essentially equivalent. The Black-Scholes formula for European call option is tested to be the solution of Black-Scholes equation. IV. The value of digital options and share digitals are calculated. The European call and put options are be replicated by digital options and share digitals, thus the prices of call and put options can be derived from the values of digitals. The put-call parity relation is given. 1. The derivation(s) of Black-Scholes Equation Black Scholes model has several assumptions: 1. Constant risk-free interest rate: r 2. Constant drift and volatility of stock price: 3. The stock doesn’t pay dividend 4. No arbitrage 5. No transaction fee or cost 6. Possible to borrow and lend any amount (even fractional) of cash at the riskless rate 7. Possible to buy and sell any amount (even fractional) of stock A typical way to derive the Black-Scholes equation is to claim that under the measure that no arbitrage is allowed (risk-neutral measure), the drift of stock price equal to the risk-free interest rate . That is (usually under risk-neutral measure, we write Brownian motion as , here we remove Q subscript for convenience ) (1) Then apply Ito’s lemma to the discounted price of derivatives , we get [ ] [( ) ] (2) Still, under risk-neutral measure we can argue that is martingale.

  • Commodity Index Traders and the Boom/Bust Cycle in Commodities Prices
    Page 2 Commodity Index Traders and the Boom/Bust Cycle in Commodities Prices David Frenk and Wallace Turbeville* ©Better Markets 2011 ABSTRACT Since 2005, the public has lived with high and volatile prices for basic energy and agricultural commodities. The public focus on this unprecedented commodity price volatility has been intense, because a large proportion of the cost of living borne by individuals and families in the U.S. (and around the globe) is represented by commodities- based costs, notably food, fuel, and clothing. Interestingly, as commodity prices have shown more price volatility, there has been an accompanying significant increase in the volume of commodities futures and swaps transactions, as well as commodities markets open interest. Moreover, Commodity Index Traders (“CITs”), a relatively new type of participant, now collectively make up the single largest group of non-commercial participants in commodities futures markets. These CITs, which represent giant institutional pools of capital, have at times been the single largest class of participant, outweighing bona fide hedgers (producers and consumers of commodities) and traditional “speculators,” who take short-term bi-directional bets and provide liquidity. Given both the size and the specific and largely homogeneous investment strategy of the CITs, many market observers have concluded that this group is most likely responsible for greatly disrupting price formation in commodities futures markets. Further, it has been posited that this distortion has directly led to

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Pricing credit default swaps with Parisian and Parasian default mechanics Abstract This paper proposes Parisian and Parasian default mechanics for modeling the credit risks of the CDS (credit default swap) contracts. Unlike most of the structural models used in the literature, our new model assumes that the default will occur only if the price of the reference asset stays below a certain level for a pre-described period of time. To work out the corresponding CDS price, a general pricing formula containing the unknown no-default probability is derived first. It is then shown that the determination of such a probability is equivalent to the valuation of a Parisian or Parasian down-and-out binary options, depending on how the time is recorded.
