Institutional Options Trading

November 1st, 2005 by eyal | Filed under General rant. | Print This Post Print This Post

Ever wondered why Institutional traders trading options have an advantage? I bet it has something to do with this sort of analysis tools:

Could some please explain to me the details of exactly how the skew delta is calculated for FPLV models. The delta on the UBM reverse cliquet seems a bit high, and I wanted to check the methodology. My expectation is that the skew delta is computed in a way that assumes that fixed strike vols are constant.
