implied_jump_process_volatility: Implied volatility of any instrument

Description Usage Arguments Details Value See Also Examples

View source: R/calibration.R

Description

Use the grid solver to generate instrument prices via find_present_value and run them through a bisective root search method until a constant volatility matching the provided instrument price has been found.

  instrument,

  starting_volatility_estimate = 0.85,
  relative_tolerance = 0.005,
  max.iter = 100,
  max_vola = 4
)

Arguments

instrument_price

Target price for root finder

instrument

Instrument to search for the target price on, passed as the sole instrument to find_present_value

...

Additional arguments to be passed on to find_present_value

starting_volatility_estimate

Bisection method original guess

relative_tolerance

Relative tolerance in instrument price defining the root-finder halting condition

max.iter

Maximum number of root-finder iterations allowed

max_vola

Maximum volatility to try

Details

Unlike american_implied_volatility, this routine allows for any legal term structures and equity-linked default intensities. For that reason, it eschews the control variate tricks that make american_implied_volatility so much faster.

Note that equity-linked default intensities can result in instrument prices that are not monotonic in volatility. This bisective root finder will find a solution but not necessarily any particular one.

Value

A list of present values, with the same names as instruments
