Introduction

• A derivative is a financial instrument whose value depends on (or derives from) the values of other, more basic, underlying assets.

• Four major types of derivatives are forwards1,futures2, options3, andswaps4.

Futures Contracts

• A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a certain time in the future for a certain price.

• For example, index futures (say TX5 and S&P 500 E-Mini6), equity futures7, commodity futures8 (say crude oil, gold, corn, and cocoa), weather futures9, and cryptocurrency futures (say, Bitcoin10).

Futures Contracts (Cont’d)

• A contract’sexpiration date is the last day you can trade that contract.

For example, the expiration date of TX contracts is the 3rd Wednesday each month.

• Futures margin is an amount of capital one needs to deposit to control a futures contract.

Be responsible for assuring that adequate funds are on deposit with the brokerage firm for margin purposes.11

If not, you cannot trade any futures.

It is called themargin trading.

Futures Contracts (Concluded)

• An index futures is a cash-settledfutures contract while a commodity futures may be settled by physical delivery.

For example, WTI crude oil futures.12

• Further information about futures could be found in the footnote.13

For example, futures markets provide aprice discovery mechanism, especially when trading in the off-market hours.14

Futures Pricing

• Let S0 be the spot price, and F0 be the futures price at time 0.

• The (theoretical) futures price is

F0= S0ecT, (1)

where T is the time to maturity, and c is thecost of carry for the futures contract.

For a non-dividend-paying stock, c = r where r is the risk-free interest rate.

For a dividend-paying stock, c = r − q where q is the dividend yield rate.

For a commodity requiring storage costs at rate u, c = r + u.

• The situation of F0> S0 is called contango;backwardation when F0 < S0.

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 8

(10)

Example

• Assume that the current market index is 17000 with r = 3%

and q = 5%.

• Then the resulting price of the near-month(T = 1 / 12) futures is

17000 × e−0.02/12= 16971.69.

• For the next-month(T = 1 / 6) futures, its price is 16943.43.

(11)

Convergence between Spot Price and Futures Price

16

• By equation (1), the futures price always converges upon the spot price on the day of the expiry.

Option Contracts

18

• A call/putoption gives the holder to the right tobuy/sell an asset bythe expiration (or maturity) date, denoted by T , for the exercise (or strike) price, denoted by X .

• European options can be exercised only on the expiration date itself, whereas American optionscan be exercised at any time up to the expiration date.

• For example, index options (say TXO17) and foreign exchange options, options on futures.

• Note that (·)+ denotes max(0, ·).

• It is clear that

long futures = long call + short put because S − X = (S − X )+− (X − S)+.21

21More precisely, the best bid of futures could be the best ask of put minus the best bid of call while the best ask of futures could be the best ask of call minus the best bid of put.

Arbitrage

• Let VΠ0 = 0 be the initial value of the portfolio Π at time 0.

• Then Π is arbitrageous if Pr(VΠ1 ≥ 0) = 1.

• Simply put, Π is asure win.

• This is called arbitrage, a process that you make a profit without bearing any risk.

• The arbitrage-free principle is the central concept of option pricing.22

22Also see the arbitrage pricing theory.

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 26

(28)

Example 1: Protective Put (Revisited)

• To hedge your long position in stock XYZ, you decide to buy its put option with the strike price $100.

• For simplicity, one option contract covers one stock share.

• Now you have 1000 shares of XYZ.

• Assume that the stock price will be $150 or $50.

• How many contracts of this put option you need to buy?

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 27

(29)

• Let x be the number of option contracts to protect one share.

• Then the final value of the portfolio (XYZ + protective put) should be

150 +0x = 50 +50x ,

• It is clear that x = 2 and the final value is $150,000.

• So we need 2000 contracts of this put option.

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 28

(30)

Example 2: Pricing

• Assume that the initial stock price is $100 and the risk-free rate for one period is 5%.

• Let P be the put price.

• The initial portfolio value is

(100 + 2P) × 1000.

• By the arbitrage-free principle, 100 + 2P = 150

1.05 = 142.86.

• So it is clear that P = 21.43.

• You need $42,860 (= P × 2000) to buy protective puts.23

23You need to pay (insurance) premium to acquire protection.

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 29

(31)

Example 3: Mispricing

• If the put price is overpriced, say P = 25, then you could now sellthe portfolio and buyto close the short position in the end:

(100 + 2 × 25)× 1.05 −150> 0.

• If the put price is underpriced, say P′′= 20, then you could play the previous strategy in opposite direction:

150−(100 + 2 × 20)× 1.05 > 0.

• The above two cases show the presence of arbitrage.

• Hence P = 21.43 is the fair priceof this put option.

Theorem of Asset Pricing

• Fundamental Theorem of Arbitrage Pricing: there exists a risk-neutral probability measure if and only if arbitrages do not exist.

• An arbitrage-free market may admit more than one risk-neutral probability measure.

• Economists call such markets incomplete.24

• Completeness Theorem: a complete market is one that has a unique equilibrium measure.

• In a complete market, any derivative security can behedged by replicatingthe portfolio from the market.

24It could be said that there are necessarily derivative securities that cannot be hedged.

Binomial Option Pricing Model (BOPM)

One-Period Case

• Let X be the strike price and r be the risk-free interest rate.

• Let S be the price at time 0.

• Let u and d be the jump size for the up and down movement at time T .25

• Let pu and pd denote the transitional probability for Su and Sd , respectively.

25It could be proved that 0 < d ≤ u is equivalent to the arbitrage-free principle.

Su

• For a fair bet, solve the following simultaneous equations (pu+ pd = 1,

puSu + pdSd = SerT.

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 34

(36)

• It is easy to see that

pu= erT − d u − d .

• If 0 ≤ pu, pd ≤ 1, then the call price C is

C = e−rTpu(Su − X )++ pd(Sd − X )+ .

• Note that puand pd are so-called therisk-neutralprobabilities.

• Under this risk-neutral probability measure,

C = e−rTEQ (ST− X )+ . (2)

• This equality also holds for continuous-time cases.

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 35

BOPM: A 3-Period Case

• A non-dividend-paying stock is selling for $160.

• Assume that u = 1.5, d = 0.5, and r = 18.232% per period (R = e0.18232= 1.2).

• Hence the probability of an up move is p = R − d

u − d = 0.7.

• Consider a European call on this stock with X = 150.

• The call value is $85.069 by backward induction.

Remarks

• The arbitrage-free principle determines the fair price of options.

• The fair price is the discounted payoff of the contingency claim under the risk-neutral probability measure.

• A further question is,

How does the price evolve over time?

Geometric Brownian Motion

29

• Let µ be the expected return rate, σ be the annual volatility, and T be the time to maturity.

• Then we assume that the return rate of St follows dSt

St = µdt + σdWt, (3)

where Wt ∼ N(0, T ) is the Wiener process.27

• By Itˆo’s lemma28, the stock price at time T is ST = S0e(µ−σ2/2)T +σWT, where S0 is the spot price.

From BOPM to Black-Scholes Formula

• Consider the log price ln St.

• By Itˆo’s lemma, it can be shown that d ln St = rdt + σdWt, where r = µ −σ2

2 .

• To match the mean and the variance of the above equation, (quln u + (1 − qu) ln d = r ∆t,

quln2u + (1 − qu) ln2d = r2∆t2+ σ2∆t.

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 48

(50)

• Choosing ud = 1, it can be shown that

u = eσ

∆t, qu= 1 2 +r√

∆t 2σ .

• It is worth to mention that

pu= er ∆t− d u − d → qu as ∆t → 0.

• This is well known as the CRR binomial model32, which is proved to converge to the Black-Scholes formula.

32Cox, Ross and Rubinstein (1979).

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 49

(51)

Black-Scholes Formula for European Options

34

• Insert equation (3) into equation (2).

• Then we could drive the famous option pricing formula

C (S , X , r , σ, T ) = SN(d1) − Xe−rTN(d2), (4) where N(·) is the normal cdf, d1 = (ln(S/X )+(r +σ2/2)T )

T and

d2= d1− σ√ T .33

• By the put-call parity,

P = C − S + Xe−rT.

Trading Volatility

• Options are a popular vehicle forspeculation.

• Speculative trades would arguably be more inclined to buy a call than to buy its stock if the stock is bullish and expected high future volatility.

• Buying options is buying volatilityandselling options is selling volatility.

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 52

(54)

Historical/Implied Volatility

• Historical volatility (HV) is the annualized standard deviation of daily returns.

• Implied volatility (IV) is the volatility input in a pricing model that, in conjunction with the other four inputs, returns the theoretical value of an option matching the market price.

• What is the difference between HV and IV?

HV: what has happened.

IV: derived from the market’s expectation for future volatility.

Zheng-Liang Lu Python Programming in Finance 53

(55)

How to Use IV?

• You could deannualize IV to the daily IV by

√IV

256 = 1-day expected σ.

• For example, assume that the period in question is one month and there are 22 business days remaining in that month.

• The ATM call for the$100 stock is traded at 32% IV.

• Then it has a one-month volatility

√0.32 256×√

22 = 9.38%.

• It is equivalent to say that there is 68% chance of the stock’s closing between $90.62 and $109.38.

How to Calculate IV?

• We know the spot price S , the time to maturity T , the risk-free rate r , and also the option price C with the strike price X .

• The only unobservable parameter is the volatility σ.

• We invert equation (4) to calculate (more precisely, estimate) σ by the Newton’s method.35

• This resulting volatility is called the implied volatility because the volatility is impliedby the Black-Scholes formula with the market prices.

35You may also use the bisection method in this problem.

Newton’s Method

36

• Let f (x ) be the target function and x be the root of f .

• Then x could be found by using the iterative formula xk+1 ← xk − f

f, where f = df

dx at xk.

• The loop halts when the convergence criteria is satisfied, say

| xk+1− xk| < ε for a constant ε small enough.

How to Calculate IV? (Concluded)

• Now consider the European call C = f (S , X , r , σ, T ).

• Then

σk+1 ← σk +C − f (S , X , r , σk, T )

ν ,

where ν = ∂f

∂σ is called the vega.

• Note that the vega of European options is ν = SN(d1)

√ T > 0.

• The higher the volatility input, the higher the theoretical value, holding all other variables constant.

Beyond the Black-Scholes Formula

• As we can see, the IV curve violets the assumption of constant volatility.38

• Empirically, stock returns tend to havefat tails, inconsistent with the Black-Scholes model’s assumptions.

• Later, the stochastic volatility models and thejump-diffusion modelsare proposed to tackle with this issue.

• In the time series analysis, the ARCH modeland its variants are also used to estimate the volatility, especially in risk management.39

38This is called thevolatility smile (smirk). See

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volatility_smile. Also see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volatility_clustering and https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/assymetricvolatility.asp.

Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) Model

40

• The CIR Model is a square-root mean reverting process following

drt= κ(θ − rt)dt + σ√ rtdWt,

where rt is the interest rate at time t, κ is the mean-reverting rate, θ is the long-term mean of rt, σ is the volatility of rt, and dWt is a Wiener process.

• The CIR model is widely used in modeling interest rate, commoditiy price, and price volatility (or variance).

Heston Model

• Heston (1993) exploits the CIR model to capture the dynamic of price volatility:

dS

S = µdt +√

vtdW1,t, dvt = κ(θ − vt)dt + σ√

vtdW2,t,

where vr is the price variance of St and dW1,t × dW2,t = ρ.

• In particular, ρ is typically negative in the stock market.

Merton’s Jump-Diffusion Model

• Merton (1976) superimposes a jump component on a diffusion component.

• The jump component is composed of lognormal jumps driven by a Poisson process.43

• It models the sudden changes in the stock price because of the arrival of important new information.

• The risk-neutral jump-diffusion process follows dSt

St = (r − λκ)dt + σdWt+ κdqt,

where qt is compound Poisson process with intensity λ, where κ denotes the magnitude of the random jump.
