  2. PnL explained - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PnL_Explained

    For example, the delta of an option is the value an option changes due to a $1 move in the underlying commodity or equity/stock. See Risk factor (finance) § Financial risks for the market . To calculate 'impact of prices' the formula is: Impact of prices = option delta × price move; so if the price moves $100 and the option's delta is 0.05% ...

  3. Monte Carlo methods for option pricing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_methods_for...

    Here the price of the option is its discounted expected value; see risk neutrality and rational pricing. The technique applied then, is (1) to generate a large number of possible, but random, price paths for the underlying (or underlyings) via simulation, and (2) to then calculate the associated exercise value (i.e. "payoff") of the option for ...

  4. Finite difference methods for option pricing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference_methods...

    In general, finite difference methods are used to price options by approximating the (continuous-time) differential equation that describes how an option price evolves over time by a set of (discrete-time) difference equations. The discrete difference equations may then be solved iteratively to calculate a price for the option. [4]

  6. Binomial options pricing model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_options_pricing_model

    In finance, the binomial options pricing model (BOPM) provides a generalizable numerical method for the valuation of options.Essentially, the model uses a "discrete-time" (lattice based) model of the varying price over time of the underlying financial instrument, addressing cases where the closed-form Black–Scholes formula is wanting, which in general does not exist for the BOPM.

  7. Valuation of options - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valuation_of_options

    In finance, a price (premium) is paid or received for purchasing or selling options.This article discusses the calculation of this premium in general. For further detail, see: Mathematical finance § Derivatives pricing: the Q world for discussion of the mathematics; Financial engineering for the implementation; as well as Financial modeling § Quantitative finance generally.

  8. Stock option return - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stock_option_return

    %If Unchanged Potential Return = (call option price - put option price) / [stock price - (call option price - put option price)] For example, for stock JKH purchased at $52.5, a call option sold for $2.00 with a strike price of $55 and a put option purchased for $0.50 with a strike price of $50, the %If Unchanged Return for the collar would be:

  9. DuPont analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuPont_analysis

    DuPont analysis (also known as the DuPont identity, DuPont equation, DuPont framework, DuPont model, DuPont method or DuPont system) is a tool used in financial analysis, where return on equity (ROE) is separated into its component parts.
