Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper develops a closed-form option pricing formula for a spot asset whose variance follows a GARCH process. The model allows for correlation between returns of the spot asset and variance and also admits multiple lags in the dynamics of the GARCH process. The single factor (one lag) version of this model contains Heston's (1993) stochastic volatility model as a diffusion limit and therefore unifies the discrete GARCH and continuous-time stochastic volatility literature of option pricing. The new model provides the first option formula for a random volatility model that is solely a function of observables; all the parameters can be easily estimated from the history of asset prices, observed at discreteintervals. Empirical analysis on Samp;P500 index options shows the single factor version of the GARCH model to be a substantial improvement over the Black-Scholes (1973) model. The GARCH model continues to substantially outperform the Black-Scholes model even when the Black-Scholes model is updated every period while the parameters of the GARCH model are held constant. The improvement is due largely to the ability of the GARCH model to describe the correlation of volatility with spot returns. This allows the GARCH model to capture strike price biases in the Black-Scholes model that give rise to the skew in implied volatilities in the index options market.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper develops a closed-form option valuation formula for a spot asset whose variance follows a GARCH(p,q) process that can be correlated with the returns of the spot asset. It provides the first readily computed option formula for a random volatility model that can be estimated and implemented solely on the basis of observables. The single lag version of this model contains Heston's (1993) stochastic volatility model as a continuous-time limit. Empirical analysis on Samp;P500 index options shows that the out-of-sample valuation errors from the single lag version of the GARCH model are substantially lower than the ad hoc Black-Scholes model of Dumas, Fleming and Whaley (1998) that uses a separate implied volatility for each option to fit to the smirk/smile in implied volatilties. The GARCH model remains superior even though the parameters of the GARCH model are held constant and volatility is filtered from the history of asset prices while the ad hoc Black-Scholes model is updated every period. The improvement is largely due to the ability of the GARCH model to simultaneously capture the correlation of volatility with spot returns and the path dependence in volatility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current world financial scene indicates at an intertwined and interdependent relationship between financial market activity and economic health. This book explains how the economic messages delivered by the dynamic evolution of financial asset returns are strongly related to option prices. The Black Scholes framework is introduced and by underlining its shortcomings, an alternative approach is presented that has emerged over the past ten years of academic research, an approach that is much more grounded on a realistic statistical analysis of data rather than on ad hoc tractable continuous time option pricing models. The reader then learns what it takes to understand and implement these option pricing models based on time series analysis in a self-contained way. The discussion covers modeling choices available to the quantitative analyst, as well as the tools to decide upon a particular model based on the historical datasets of financial returns. The reader is then guided into numerical deduction of option prices from these models and illustrations with real examples are used to reflect the accuracy of the approach using datasets of options on equity indices.

Download or read book Preference-Free Option Pricing with Path-Dependent Volatility written by Steven L. Heston and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper shows how one can obtain a continuous-time preference-free option pricing model with a path-dependent volatility as the limit of a discrete-time GARCH model. In particular, the continuous-time model is the limit of a discrete-time GARCH model of Heston and Nandi (1997) that allows asymmetry between returns and volatility. For the continuous-time model, one can directly compute closed-form solutions for option prices using the formula of Heston (1993). Toward that purpose, we present the necessary mappings, based on Foster and Nelson (1994), such that one can approximate (arbitrarily closely) the parameters of the continuous-time model on the basis of the parameters of the discrete-time GARCH model. The discrete-time GARCH parameters can be estimated easily just by observing the history of asset prices.Unlike most option pricing models that are based on the absence of arbitrage alone, a parameter related to the expected return/risk premium of the asset does appear in the continuous-time option formula. However, given other parameters, option prices are not at all sensitive to the risk premium parameter, which is often imprecisely estimated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We derive analytically the first four conditional moments of the integrated variance implied by the GARCH diffusion process. From these moments we obtain an analytical closed-form approximation formula to price European options under the GARCH diffusion model.Using Monte Carlo simulations, we show that this approximation formula is accurate for a large set of reasonable parameters. Finally, we use the closed-form option pricing solution to shed light on the qualitative properties of implied volatility surfaces induced by GARCH diffusion models.

Book excerpt: In this thesis, we derive an analytical closed-form approximation for European option prices under the GARCH diffusion model, where the price is driven by a geometric process and the variance by an uncorrelated mean reverting geometric process. This result has several important implications. First and foremost, these conditional moments allow us to obtain an analytical closed-form approximation for European option prices under the GARCH diffusion model. This approximation can be easily implemented in any standard software package. As we will show using Monte Carlo simulations, this approximation is very accurate across different strikes and maturities for a large set of reasonable parameters. Secondly, our analytical approximation allows to easily study volatility surfaces induced by GARCH diffusion models. Thirdly, the conditional moments of the integrated variance implied by the GARCH diffusion process generalize the conditional moments derived by Hull and White (1987) for log-normal variance processes. Finally, the conditional moments of the integrated variance can be used to estimate the continuous time parameters of the GARCH diffusion model using high frequency data. The thesis is organized as follows. Chapter 1 introduces stochastic volatility option pricing models and discusses in details the GARCH diffusion model and its properties. Chapter 2 presents the analytical approximation formula to price European options under the GARCH diffusion model. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we verify the accuracy of the approximation across different strike prices and times to maturity for different parameter choices. We investigate differences between option prices under the GARCH diffusion and the Black and Scholes model. Then, we qualitatively study implied volatility surfaces induced by the GARCH diffusion. Chapter 3 studies the accuracy of the inference results on the GARCH diffusion model based on the Nelson's theory. Using such a procedure, we fit the GARCH diffusi.

Praise for Option Pricing Models & Volatility Using Excel-VBA "Excel is already a great pedagogical tool for teaching option valuation and risk management. But the VBA routines in this book elevate Excel to an industrial-strength financial engineering toolbox. I have no doubt that it will become hugely successful as a reference for option traders and risk managers." —Peter Christoffersen, Associate Professor of Finance, Desautels Faculty of Management, McGill University "This book is filled with methodology and techniques on how to implement option pricing and volatility models in VBA. The book takes an in-depth look into how to implement the Heston and Heston and Nandi models and includes an entire chapter on parameter estimation, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. Everyone interested in derivatives should have this book in their personal library." —Espen Gaarder Haug, option trader, philosopher, and author of Derivatives Models on Models "I am impressed. This is an important book because it is the first book to cover the modern generation of option models, including stochastic volatility and GARCH." —Steven L. Heston, Assistant Professor of Finance, R.H. Smith School of Business, University of Maryland

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) option pricing models (OPM) with historical volatility have proven superior to the log-normality assumption of the Black option pricing model with historical volatility. This paper estimates implied volatilities from GARCH OPM. The estimated implied volatilities are used to forecast option premia. The GARCH implied volatilities are more stable than the Black implied volatilities. The GARCH OPM with implied volatility should provide better guidance to market makers and arbitragers than the Black option pricing model with implied volatility for options ranging from six to sixteen days to maturity. For options ranging from 21 to 50 days to maturity the Black OPM with implied volatility should provide better guidance to market makers and arbitragers than the GARCH OPM with implied volatility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este trabalho procura confirmar a hipótese de o modelo de apreçamento de opções GARCH reduzir alguns dos já amplamente estudados vieses do modelo de Black & Scholes, utilizando opções de compra da Telebras no período julho de 1995 a junho de 2000. Para isso, comparam-se os preços encontrados por intermédio do modelo GARCH com os do modelo de Black & Scholes, cotejando-os com os preços de mercado. Os resultados indicaram que o modelo GARCH foi capaz de diminuir alguns dos vieses, principalmente para opções fora-do-dinheiro com curto tempo para o vencimento. Desta forma, o modelo GARCH se mostrou uma alternativa eficaz ao modelo de Black e Scholes, sobretudo para opções com pouca liquidez, nas quais não é possível a utilização da volatilidade implícita da equação de Black e Scholes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose a new method for pricing options based on GARCH models with filtered historical innovations. In an incomplete market framework, we allow for different distributions of historical and pricing return dynamics, which enhances the model's flexibility to fit market option prices. An extensive empirical analysis based on Samp;P 500 index options shows that our model outperforms other competing GARCH pricing models and ad hoc Black-Scholes models. We show that the flexible change of measure, the asymmetric GARCH volatility, and the nonparametric innovation distribution induce the accurate pricing performance of our model. Using a nonparametric approach, we obtain decreasing state-price densities per unit probability as suggested by economic theory and corroborating our GARCH pricing model. Implied volatility smiles appear to be explained by asymmetric volatility and negative skewness of filtered historical innovations.

Download or read book GARCH Option Pricing Under Skew written by Sofiane Aboura and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article is an empirical study dedicated to the GARCH Option pricing model of Duan (1995) applied to the FTSE 100 European style options for various maturities. The beauty of this model is in that it used the standard GARCH theory in an option perspective and also in its flexibility to adapt to different rich GARCH specifications. We analyze the validity of the model given its ability to price one-day ahead out-of-sample call options and also its ability to capture the empirical dynamic of the volatility skew. We get severe mispricing for deep out-of-the-money and short term call options, which tend to decrease the global performance of the model that is relatively correct. We note that long term skews tend to be more stable across time and strikes, which explains why we had a decreasing pricing bias for longer maturity contracts. We also get that skews tend to deform into smiles as we go toward the expiry date. This model reveals a good ability to capture the change of regime in the implied volatility surface judging from the transformation observed from smiles to skews.

Book excerpt: We survey the theory and empirical evidence on GARCH option valuation models. We provide an overview of different functional forms for the volatility dynamic, multifactor models, nonnormal innovation distributions and valuation techniques. We also discuss alternative pricing kernels used for risk neutralization, various strategies for empirical implementation, and the links between GARCH and stochastic volatility models. In the appendix we provide Matlab computer code for option pricing via Monte Carlo simulation for nonaffine models as well as via Fourier inversion for affine models.
