This paper examines a simple basis risk model based on correlated geometric Brownian motions. We apply quadratic … criteria to minimize basis risk and hedge in an optimal manner. Initially, we derive the Föllmer–Schweizer decomposition for a … European claim. This allows pricing and hedging under the minimal martingale measure, corresponding to the local risk …

The popular replication formula to price variance swaps assumes continuity of traded option strikes. In practice, however, there is only a discrete set of option strikes traded on the market. We present here different discrete replication strategies and explain why the continuous replication...

In this paper, the Heston-Nandi futures option pricing model is applied to Bitcoin futures options. The model prices are compared to market prices to give an indication of the pricing performance. In addition, a multivariate Bitcoin futures option pricing methodology based on a multivatiate...

Using the Donsker-Prokhorov invariance principle, we extend the Kim-Stoyanov-Rachev-Fabozzi option pricing model to allow for variably-spaced trading instances, an important consideration for short-sellers of options. Applying the Cherny-Shiryaev-Yor invariance principles, we formulate a new...

The main objective of this paper is to present an algorithm of pricing perpetual American put options with asset-dependent discounting. The value function of such an instrument can be described as VωAPut(s)=supτ∈TEs[e−∫0τω(Sw)dw(K−Sτ)+], where T is a family of stopping times, ω is...
