Input Arguments
StockSpec
— Stock specification for underlying asset
structure
Stock specification for the underlying asset. For information
on the stock specification, see stockspec
.
stockspec
handles several
types of underlying assets. For example, for physical commodities
the price is StockSpec.Asset
, the volatility is StockSpec.Sigma
,
and the convenience yield is StockSpec.DividendAmounts
.
Data Types: struct
OptSpec
— Definition of option
character vector with values 'call'
or
'put'
| string array with values "call"
or
"put"
Definition of the option as 'call'
or 'put'
, specified
as an NINST
-by-1
cell array of
character vectors or string arrays with values "call"
or
"put"
.
Data Types: char
| string
| cell
Strike
— Option strike price value
numeric
Option strike price value, specified as an NINST
-by-1
matrix of numeric values.
Data Types: double
Settle
— Settlement or trade date
datetime array | string array | date character vector | serial date number
Settlement or trade date for the barrier option, specified as an
NINST
-by-1
vector using a datetime
array, string array, date character vectors, or serial date numbers.
Data Types: double
| char
| string
| datetime
ExerciseDates
— Option exercise dates
datetime array | string array | date character vector | serial date number
Option exercise dates, specified as an
NINST
-by-1
vector using a datetime
array, string array, date character vectors, or serial date numbers.
Note
For a European option, there is only one
ExerciseDates
on the option expiry date which
is the maturity of the instrument.
Data Types: double
| char
| string
| datetime
BarrierSpec
— Barrier option type
character vector with values: 'UI'
, 'UO'
, 'DI'
, 'DO'
Barrier option type, specified as an NINST
-by-1
cell
array of character vectors with the following values:
'UI'
— Up Knock-inThis option becomes effective when the price of the underlying asset passes above the barrier level. It gives the option holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell (call/put) the underlying security at the strike price if the underlying asset goes above the barrier level during the life of the option.
'UO'
— Up Knock-outThis option gives the option holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell (call/put) the underlying security at the strike price as long as the underlying asset does not go above the barrier level during the life of the option. This option terminates when the price of the underlying asset passes above the barrier level. Usually with an up-and-out option, the rebate is paid if the spot price of the underlying reaches or exceeds the barrier level.
'DI'
— Down Knock-inThis option becomes effective when the price of the underlying stock passes below the barrier level. It gives the option holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell (call/put) the underlying security at the strike price if the underlying security goes below the barrier level during the life of the option. With a down-and-in option, the rebate is paid if the spot price of the underlying does not reach the barrier level during the life of the option.
'DO'
— Down Knock-upThis option gives the option holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell (call/put) the underlying asset at the strike price as long as the underlying asset does not go below the barrier level during the life of the option. This option terminates when the price of the underlying security passes below the barrier level. Usually, the option holder receives a rebate amount if the option expires worthless.
Option | Barrier Type | Payoff if Barrier Crossed | Payoff if Barrier not Crossed |
---|---|---|---|
Call/Put | Down Knock-out | Worthless | Standard Call/Put |
Call/Put | Down Knock-in | Call/Put | Worthless |
Call/Put | Up Knock-out | Worthless | Standard Call/Put |
Call/Put | Up Knock-in | Standard Call/Put | Worthless |
Data Types: char
| cell
Barrier
— Barrier level
numeric
Barrier level, specified as an
NINST
-by-1
matrix of numeric
values.
Data Types: double
Name-Value Arguments
Specify optional pairs of arguments as
Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN
, where Name
is
the argument name and Value
is the corresponding value.
Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the
pairs does not matter.
Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose
Name
in quotes.
Example: Price = barriersensbybls(RateSpec,StockSpec,OptSpec,Strike,Settle,Maturity,BarrierSpec,Barrier,'Rebate',1000,'OutSpec','Delta')
Rebate
— Rebate values
0
(default) | numeric
Rebate values, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of
'Rebate'
and
NINST
-by-1
matrix of numeric
values. For Knock-in options, the Rebate
is paid at
expiry. For Knock-out options, the Rebate
is paid
when the Barrier
is reached.
Data Types: double
OutSpec
— Define outputs
{'Price'}
(default) | character vector with values 'Price'
, 'Delta'
, 'Gamma'
, 'Vega'
, 'Lambda'
, 'Rho'
, 'Theta'
,
and 'All'
| cell array of character vectors with values 'Price'
, 'Delta'
, 'Gamma'
, 'Vega'
, 'Lambda'
, 'Rho'
, 'Theta'
,
and 'All'
Define outputs, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of
'OutSpec'
and a NOUT
-
by-1
or a
1
-by-NOUT
cell array of
character vectors with possible values of 'Price'
,
'Delta'
, 'Gamma'
,
'Vega'
, 'Lambda'
,
'Rho'
, 'Theta'
, and
'All'
.
OutSpec = {'All'}
specifies that the output
is Delta
, Gamma
, Vega
, Lambda
, Rho
, Theta
,
and Price
, in that order. This is the same as specifying OutSpec
to
include each sensitivity.
Example: OutSpec = {'delta','gamma','vega','lambda','rho','theta','price'}
Data Types: char
| cell
Output Arguments
PriceSens
— Expected prices or sensitivities for barrier options
matrix
Expected prices at time 0 or sensitivities (defined using OutSpec
)
for barrier options, returned as a NINST
-by-1
matrix.
More About
Barrier Option
A Barrier option has not only a strike price but also a barrier level and sometimes a rebate.
A rebate is a fixed amount that is paid if the option cannot be exercised because the barrier
level has been reached or not reached. The payoff for this type of option depends on
whether the underlying asset crosses the predetermined trigger value (barrier
level), indicated by Barrier
, during the life of the option.
For more information, see Barrier Option.
