We consider Hestons (1993) stochastic volatility model for valuation of European options to which (semi) closed form solutions are available and are given in terms of characteristic functions. We prove that the class of scale-parameter distributions with mean being the forward spot price satisfies Hestons solution. Thus, we show that any member of this class could be used for the direct risk-neutral valuation of the option price under Hestons SV model. In fact, we also show that any RND with mean being the forward spot price that satisfies Hestons option valuation solution, must be a member of a scale-family of distributions in that mean. As particular examples, we show that one-paramet

Following Boukai (2021) we present the Generalized Gamma (GG) distribution as a possible RND for modeling European options prices under Hestons (1993) stochastic volatility (SV) model. This distribution is seen as especially useful in situations in w
hich the spots price follows a negatively skewed distribution and hence, Black-Scholes based (i.e. the log-normal distribution) modeling is largely inapt. We apply the GG distribution as RND to modeling current market option data on three large market-index ETFs, namely the SPY, IWM and QQQ as well as on the TLT (an ETF that tracks an index of long term US Treasury bonds). The current option chain of each of the three market-index ETFs shows of a pronounced skew of their volatility `smile which indicates a likely distortion in the Black-Scholes modeling of such option data. Reflective of entirely different market expectations, this distortion appears not to exist in the TLT option data. We provide a thorough modeling of the available option data we have on each ETF (with the October 15, 2021 expiration) based on the GG distribution and compared it to the option pricing and RND modeling obtained directly from a well-calibrated Hestons (1993) SV model (both theoretically and empirically, using Monte-Carlo simulations of the spots price). All three market-index ETFs exhibit negatively skewed distributions which are well-matched with those derived under the GG distribution as RND. The inadequacy of the Black-Scholes modeling in such instances which involve negatively skewed distribution is further illustrated by its impact on the hedging factor, delta, and the immediate implications to the retail trader. In contrast, for the TLT ETF, which exhibits no such distortion to the volatility `smile, the three pricing models (i.e. Hestons, Black-Scholes and Generalized Gamma) appear to yield similar results.
This paper focuses on the pricing of continuous geometric Asian options (GAOs) under a multifactor stochastic volatility model. The model considers fast and slow mean reverting factors of volatility, where slow volatility factor is approximated by a
quadratic arc. The asymptotic expansion of the price function is assumed, and the first order price approximation is derived using the perturbation techniques for both floating and fixed strike GAOs. Much simplified pricing formulae for the GAOs are obtained in this multifactor stochastic volatility framework. The zeroth order term in the price approximation is the modified Black-Scholes price for the GAOs. This modified price is expressed in terms of the Black-Scholes price for the GAOs. The accuracy of the approximate option pricing formulae is established, and the model parameter is also estimated by capturing the volatility smiles.
We consider option pricing using a discrete-time Markov switching stochastic volatility with co-jump model, which can model volatility clustering and varying mean-reversion speeds of volatility. For pricing European options, we develop a computationa
lly efficient method for obtaining the probability distribution of average integrated variance (AIV), which is key to option pricing under stochastic-volatility-type models. Building upon the efficiency of the European option pricing approach, we are able to price an American-style option, by converting its pricing into the pricing of a portfolio of European options. Our work also provides constructive guidance for analyzing derivatives based on variance, e.g., the variance swap. Numerical results indicate our methods can be implemented very efficiently and accurately.
This paper presents how to apply the stochastic collocation technique to assets that can not move below a boundary. It shows that the polynomial collocation towards a lognormal distribution does not work well. Then, the potentials issues of the relat
ed collocated local volatility model (CLV) are explored. Finally, a simple analytical expression for the Dupire local volatility derived from the option prices modelled by stochastic collocation is given.
In this paper, a pricing formula for volatility swaps is delivered when the underlying asset follows the stochastic volatility model with jumps and stochastic intensity. By using Feynman-Kac theorem, a partial integral differential equation is obtain
ed to derive the joint moment generating function of the previous model. Moreover, discrete and continuous sampled volatility swap pricing formulas are given by employing transform techniques and the relationship between two pricing formulas is discussed. Finally, some numerical simulations are reported to support the results presented in this paper.
