This study extends the Hull and White (1993 J. Derivatives 1 21-31) binomial method to construct a trinomial model for the valuation of American-style options whose strike price can be reset to a new level. The reset criterion is conditioned upon the average underlying asset price hitting the...

This paper describes four separate option types as special cases of Bermudans with general inter-exercise and time to final maturity. This produces a surface with European, finite American, infinite Bermudan and infinite American options as special cases. This allows <link rid="b13">Geske-Johnson (1984)</link>...

In this paper, we set out to investigate the information content of options trading using a unique dataset to examine the predictive power of the put and call positions of different types of traders in the TAIEX option market. We find that options volume, as a whole, carries no information on...

In this paper the authors investigate the performance of the original and repeated Richardson extrapolation methods for American option pricing by implementing both the original and modified Geske–Johnson approximation formulae. A comprehensive numerical comparison includes alternative...

This study adopts a unique dataset that includes the complete history of transactions in the Taiwan options market to investigate the misreaction patterns for marketwise observations and the transactions of four different categories of investors in the high-frequency framework. Using the results...

This study is on valuing Asian strike options and presents efficient and accurate quadratic approximation methods that work extremely well, both with regard to the volatility of a wide range of underlying assets, and longer average time windows. We demonstrate that most of the well-known...
