Valuation of options
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Because the value of options contracts depend on a number of different variables in addition to the value of the underlying asset, they are complex to value.
There are many pricing models in use, some of them are as following:
- Black-Scholes
- Binomial options pricing model
- Monte Carlo option model
- Barone-Adesi and Whaley American Option Approximation
