  2. Option time value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Option_time_value

    Option time value. In finance, the time value (TV) (extrinsic or instrumental value) of an option is the premium a rational investor would pay over its current exercise value (intrinsic value), based on the probability it will increase in value before expiry. For an American option this value is always greater than zero in a fair market, thus ...

  3. Binomial options pricing model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_options_pricing_model

    At each final node of the tree—i.e. at expiration of the option—the option value is simply its intrinsic, or exercise, value: Max [ (S n − K), 0 ], for a call option Max [ (K − S n), 0 ], for a put option, Where K is the strike price and is the spot price of the underlying asset at the n th period.

  4. Valuation of options - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valuation_of_options

    For a put option, the option is in-the-money if the strike price is higher than the underlying spot price; then the intrinsic value is the strike price minus the underlying spot price. Otherwise the intrinsic value is zero. For example, when a DJI call (bullish/long) option is 18,000 and the underlying DJI Index is priced at $18,050 then there ...

  5. Monte Carlo methods for option pricing - Wikipedia

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

    The value is defined as the least squares regression against market price of the option value at that state and time (-step). Option value for this regression is defined as the value of exercise possibilities (dependent on market price) plus the value of the timestep value which that exercise would result in (defined in the previous step of the ...

  6. Intrinsic value (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrinsic_value_(finance)

    For an option, the intrinsic value is the absolute value of the difference between the current price (S) of the underlying and the strike price (K) of the option, to the extent that this is in favor of the option holder. Thus, the option is said to have intrinsic value if the option is in-the-money; when out-of-the-money, its intrinsic value is ...

  7. Option (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Option_(finance)

    The first part is the intrinsic value, which is defined as the difference between the market value of the underlying, and the strike price of the given option The second part is the time value , which depends on a set of other factors which, through a multi-variable, non-linear interrelationship, reflect the discounted expected value of that ...

  8. Call option - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_option

    Option values vary with the value of the underlying instrument over time. The price of the call contract must act as a proxy response for the valuation of: the expected intrinsic value of the option, defined as the expected value of the difference between the strike price and the market value, i.e., max[S−X, 0].

  9. Lattice model (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_model_(finance)

    Lattice model (finance) Binomial Lattice for equity, with CRR formulae. Tree for an (embedded) bond option returning the OAS (black vs red): the short rate is the top value; the development of the bond value shows pull-to-par clearly. In finance, a lattice model[1] is a technique applied to the valuation of derivatives, where a discrete time ...
