price
Syntax
Description
[
computes the interest-rate instrument price and related pricing information based on the
pricing object Price,PriceResult] = price(inpPricer,inpInstrument)inpPricer and the instrument object
inpInstrument.
[
adds an optional argument to specify sensitivities. Use this syntax with the input
argument combination in the previous syntax.Price,PriceResult] = price(___,inpSensitivity)
Examples
This example shows the workflow to price a FixedBond instrument when using a HullWhite model and an IRMonteCarlo pricing method.
Create FixedBond Instrument Object
Use fininstrument to create a FixedBond instrument object.
FixB = fininstrument("FixedBond","Maturity",datetime(2022,9,15),"CouponRate",0.05,'Name',"fixed_bond")
FixB =
FixedBond with properties:
CouponRate: 0.0500
Period: 2
Basis: 0
EndMonthRule: 1
Principal: 100
DaycountAdjustedCashFlow: 0
BusinessDayConvention: "actual"
Holidays: NaT
IssueDate: NaT
FirstCouponDate: NaT
LastCouponDate: NaT
StartDate: NaT
Maturity: 15-Sep-2022
Name: "fixed_bond"
Create HullWhite Model Object
Use finmodel to create a HullWhite model object.
HullWhiteModel = finmodel("HullWhite",'Alpha',0.32,'Sigma',0.49)
HullWhiteModel =
HullWhite with properties:
Alpha: 0.3200
Sigma: 0.4900
Create ratecurve Object
Create a ratecurve object using ratecurve.
Settle = datetime(2019,1,1); Type = 'zero'; ZeroTimes = [calmonths(6) calyears([1 2 3 4 5 7 10 20 30])]'; ZeroRates = [0.0052 0.0055 0.0061 0.0073 0.0094 0.0119 0.0168 0.0222 0.0293 0.0307]'; ZeroDates = Settle + ZeroTimes; myRC = ratecurve('zero',Settle,ZeroDates,ZeroRates)
myRC =
ratecurve with properties:
Type: "zero"
Compounding: -1
Basis: 0
Dates: [10×1 datetime]
Rates: [10×1 double]
Settle: 01-Jan-2019
InterpMethod: "linear"
ShortExtrapMethod: "next"
LongExtrapMethod: "previous"
Create IRMonteCarlo Pricer Object
Use finpricer to create an IRMonteCarlo pricer object and use the ratecurve object for the 'DiscountCurve' name-value pair argument.
outPricer = finpricer("IRMonteCarlo",'Model',HullWhiteModel,'DiscountCurve',myRC,'SimulationDates',ZeroDates)
outPricer =
HWMonteCarlo with properties:
NumTrials: 1000
RandomNumbers: []
DiscountCurve: [1×1 ratecurve]
SimulationDates: [01-Jul-2019 01-Jan-2020 01-Jan-2021 01-Jan-2022 01-Jan-2023 01-Jan-2024 01-Jan-2026 01-Jan-2029 01-Jan-2039 01-Jan-2049]
Model: [1×1 finmodel.HullWhite]
Price FixedBond Instrument
Use price to compute the price and sensitivities for the FixedBond instrument.
[Price,outPR] = price(outPricer,FixB,["all"])Price = 115.0303
outPR =
priceresult with properties:
Results: [1×4 table]
PricerData: [1×1 struct]
outPR.Results
ans=1×4 table
Price Delta Gamma Vega
______ _______ ______ ____
115.03 -397.13 1430.4 0
Input Arguments
Pricer object, specified as a previously created IRMonteCarlo pricer
object. Create the pricer object using finpricer.
Data Types: object
Instrument object, specified as scalar or a vector of previously created instrument
objects. Create the instrument objects using fininstrument. The following
instrument objects are supported:
Data Types: object
(Optional) List of sensitivities to compute, specified as an
NOUT-by-1 or
1-by-NOUT cell array of character vectors or
string array.
The supported sensitivities depend on the pricing method.
| inpInstrument | Supported Sensitivities |
|---|---|
Cap | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'}
('vega' not supported when using SABRBraceGatarekMusiela model with the IRMonteCarlo
pricer.) |
Floor | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'}
('vega' not supported when using SABRBraceGatarekMusiela model with the IRMonteCarlo
pricer.) |
Swap | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'} |
Swaption | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'} |
FixedBond | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'}
('vega' not supported when using SABRBraceGatarekMusiela model with the IRMonteCarlo
pricer.) |
OptionEmbeddedFixedBond | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'}
('vega' not supported when using SABRBraceGatarekMusiela model with the IRMonteCarlo
pricer.) |
FixedBondOption | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'}
('vega' not supported when using SABRBraceGatarekMusiela model with the IRMonteCarlo
pricer.) |
FloatBond | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'}
('vega' not supported when using SABRBraceGatarekMusiela model with the IRMonteCarlo
pricer.) |
FloatBondOption | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'}
('vega' not supported when using SABRBraceGatarekMusiela model with the IRMonteCarlo
pricer.) |
OptionEmbeddedFloatBond | {'delta','gamma','vega','price'}
('vega' not supported when using SABRBraceGatarekMusiela model with the IRMonteCarlo
pricer.) |
inpSensitivity = 'All' or inpSensitivity =
"All" specifies that all sensitivities for the pricing method are returned.
This is the same as specifying inpSensitivity to include each
sensitivity.
Example: inpSensitivity =
["delta","gamma","vega","price"]
Data Types: cell | string
Output Arguments
Instrument price, returned as a numeric.
Price result, returned as a PriceResult object. The object has
the following fields:
PriceResult.Results— Table of results that includes sensitivities (if you specifyinpSensitivity)PriceResult.PricerData— Structure for pricer data
More About
A delta sensitivity measures the rate at which the price of an option is expected to change relative to a $1 change in the price of the underlying asset.
Delta is not a static measure; it changes as the price of the underlying asset changes (a concept known as gamma sensitivity), and as time passes. Options that are near the money or have longer until expiration are more sensitive to changes in delta.
A gamma sensitivity measures the rate of change of an option's delta in response to a change in the price of the underlying asset.
In other words, while delta tells you how much the price of an option might move, gamma tells you how fast the option's delta itself will change as the price of the underlying asset moves. This is important because this helps you understand the convexity of an option's value in relation to the underlying asset's price.
A vega sensitivity measures the sensitivity of an option's price to changes in the volatility of the underlying asset.
Vega represents the amount by which the price of an option would be expected to change for a 1% change in the implied volatility of the underlying asset. Vega is expressed as the amount of money per underlying share that the option's value will gain or lose as volatility rises or falls.
