On April 20, 2020, oil futures reached negative values for the first time in history, [2] where Bachelier model took an important role in option pricing and risk management. The European analytic formula for this model based on a risk neutral argument is derived in Analytic Formula for the European Normal Black Scholes Formula ( Kazuhiro ...
Geometric Brownian motion is used to model stock prices in the Black–Scholes model and is the most widely used model of stock price behavior. [4] Some of the arguments for using GBM to model stock prices are: The expected returns of GBM are independent of the value of the process (stock price), which agrees with what we would expect in ...
Relative strength is a ratio of a stock price performance to a market average (index) performance. [1] It is used in technical analysis . It is not to be confused with relative strength index .
Random walk: The instantaneous log return of the stock price is an infinitesimal random walk with drift; more precisely, the stock price follows a geometric Brownian motion, and it is assumed that the drift and volatility of the motion are constant. If drift and volatility are time-varying, a suitably modified Black–Scholes formula can be ...
where (,) is the price of the option as a function of stock price S and time t, r is the risk-free interest rate, and is the volatility of the stock. The key financial insight behind the equation is that, under the model assumption of a frictionless market , one can perfectly hedge the option by buying and selling the underlying asset in just ...
The Brownian motion models for financial markets are based on the work of Robert C. Merton and Paul A. Samuelson, as extensions to the one-period market models of Harold Markowitz and William F. Sharpe, and are concerned with defining the concepts of financial assets and markets, portfolios, gains and wealth in terms of continuous-time stochastic processes.

Example of historical stock price data (top half) with the typical presentation of a MACD(12,26,9) indicator (bottom half). The blue line is the MACD series proper, the difference between the 12-day and 26-day EMAs of the price. The red line is the average or signal series, a 9-day EMA of the MACD series.
