Implied Trinomial Tree Setup
The implied trinomial tree (ITT) model is a framework for pricing equity options that extends the traditional binomial tree model by incorporating a trinomial structure. This model allows for three possible price movements at each node in the tree: an upward movement, a downward movement, and a stay-at-the-same price movement. Setup an ITT options tree model using the following functions:
Functions
itttimespec | Specify time structure using implied trinomial tree (ITT) |
itttree | Build implied trinomial stock tree |
stockoptspec | Specify European stock option structure |
