Options Pricing Suite 1.6

The Options Pricing Suite offers a thorough platform for financial option pricing and Greek calculations, boasting an extensive range of over 50 classes of options and strategies, along with more than 100 distinct payoff types.

For vanilla options, the application incorporates Black-Scholes valuation applicable to European calls and puts, American options, stochastic volatility considerations, and an implied volatility calculator. These features provide a robust foundation for fundamental option analysis.

In terms of exotic options, the suite adeptly handles pricing and Greeks for a variety of derivatives including binary, Asian, barrier, lookback options, among others. This capability enhances its utility for more complex financial instruments.

The app supports popular strategies such as bull/bear spreads, straddles, butterfly spreads, and additional tactical combinations. This array of strategies allows users to explore various market scenarios and optimize their financial approaches.

Graphical functionality is also a key feature, enabling users to visually analyze fluctuations in option prices and Greeks. The underlying assets can be diverse, encompassing stocks (including dividend-paying stocks), equity indices, futures, currencies, and commodities.

The user interface emphasizes ease of use with straightforward input forms and comprehensive assistance available. The suite supports both automatic and manual saving of parameters to facilitate quick input and reduce repetitive typing. Additional functionalities include a stock price lookup by ticker, interest rate and volatility feeds, as well as a calendar input for option maturity dates.

For additional guidance, users can utilize info icons for explanations of each option type and tap on any parameter or Greek text label for in-depth information regarding its definitions. Future updates are planned to expand support for other types of options.

While every pricing screen has undergone rigorous testing, users are encouraged to report any errors or anomalies they encounter. Feedback is welcomed at xpanalytics@gmail.com.

It is important to note that all option pricing methods within the suite are grounded in established financial theory and rely on analytical formulas, approximations, or iterative methods.
