In this paper, we suggest several improvements to the numerical implementation of the quantization method for stochastic control problems in order to obtain fast and accurate premium estimations. This technique is applied to derivative pricing in energy markets. Several ways of modeling energy derivatives are described and numerical examples including parallel execution on multi-processor devices are presented to illustrate the accuracy of these methods and their execution times. 相似文献

We consider the option pricing model proposed by Mancino and Ogawa, where the implementation of dynamic hedging strategies has a feedback impact on the price process of the underlying asset. We present numerical results showing that the smile and skewness patterns of implied volatility can actually be reproduced as a consequence of dynamical hedging. The simulations are performed using a suitable semi-implicit finite difference method. Moreover, we perform a calibration of the nonlinear model to market data and we compare it with more popular models, such as the Black–Scholes formula, the Jump-Diffusion model and Heston's model. In judging the alternative models, we consider the following issues: (i) the consistency of the implied structural parameters with the times-series data; (ii) out-of-sample pricing; and (iii) parameter uniformity across different moneyness and maturity classes. Overall, nonlinear feedback due to hedging strategies can, at least in part, contribute to the explanation from a theoretical and quantitative point of view of the strong pricing biases of the Black–Scholes formula, although stochastic volatility effects are more important in this regard. 相似文献

In this paper it is proved that the Black–Scholes implied volatility satisfies a second order non-linear partial differential equation. The obtained PDE is then used to construct an algorithm for fast and accurate polynomial approximation for Black–Scholes implied volatility that improves on the existing numerical schemes from literature, both in speed and parallelizability. We also show that the method is applicable to other problems, such as approximation of implied Bachelier volatility. 相似文献

Today, better numerical approximations are required for multi-dimensional SDEs to improve on the poor performance of the standard Monte Carlo pricing method. With this aim in mind, this paper presents a method (MSL-MC) to price exotic options using multi-dimensional SDEs (e.g. stochastic volatility models). Usually, it is the weak convergence property of numerical discretizations that is most important, because, in financial applications, one is mostly concerned with the accurate estimation of expected payoffs. However, in the recently developed Multilevel Monte Carlo path simulation method (ML-MC), the strong convergence property plays a crucial role. We present a modification to the ML-MC algorithm that can be used to achieve better savings. To illustrate these, various examples of exotic options are given using a wide variety of payoffs, stochastic volatility models and the new Multischeme Multilevel Monte Carlo method (MSL-MC). For standard payoffs, both European and Digital options are presented. Examples are also given for complex payoffs, such as combinations of European options (Butterfly Spread, Strip and Strap options). Finally, for path-dependent payoffs, both Asian and Variance Swap options are demonstrated. This research shows how the use of stochastic volatility models and the θ scheme can improve the convergence of the MSL-MC so that the computational cost to achieve an accuracy of O(ε) is reduced from O(ε?3) to O(ε?2) for a payoff under global and non-global Lipschitz conditions. 相似文献
