Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Black-Scholes option pricing model?
The Black-Scholes model is a mathematical model for pricing European-style option contracts, developed by Fischer Black and Myron Scholes in 1973. It calculates theoretical option value based on stock price, strike price, time to expiration, volatility, and risk-free interest rates.
What are the Option Greeks?
The Greeks measure the sensitivity of an option's price to various market factors: Delta (price change per $1 move in stock), Gamma (change in Delta), Theta (time decay per day), Vega (sensitivity to 1% change in implied volatility), and Rho (sensitivity to interest rates).
