  9. IV Derivatives - Futures Agreement to buy or sell an asset at a certain time in future for a certain price. Normally traded on exchange. • Standardized features • Agree to buy  long position • Agree to sell  short position • Exchanges: CBOT, CME, ...

  12. IV Derivatives - Options Example 1: Long Call on stock S with strike K=32, maturity T, price P=2. Payoff function: f(S) = max(0,S(T) – K)

  13. IV Derivatives - Options Example 2 (how to use options): 1.1.: 100 shares of S, each 80 € 30.6: must pay 7500€ (by selling the shares) Problem: price of shares could fall under 75€ Solution: buy 100 puts with strike 77 each option costs 2 Result: S(T) > 77  you have > 7700€ -200€ S(T) < 77  you have = 7700€ -200€

  14. IV Derivatives - Options Example 3 (how to use options): Situation: You think the prices of S will raise & want to profit from that. One share costs 100€. You have 10000€. Solution 1: you buy 100 shares. Solution 2: you buy calls (10€) with strike 100. Result if the prices raise to 120: Case 1: your profit 100*20€ = 2000€ Case 2: your profit 1000*20€-1000*10€ = 10000€

  15. IV Derivatives - Options Example 4 (how to use options): Call with strike 105 costs 2€ each Put with strike 110 costs 2€ each (same maturity) Action: Buy 100 calls and 100 puts. Result at T: Costs 200*2€ = 400€ Income (110€-105€)*100 = 500€ Riskless profit (arbitrage)

  16. IV Derivatives - Options Other options: • Spreads f(S)=max(0,K-S)+max(0,S-K) • Strangles f(S)=max(0,K-S)+max(0,S-L) • Pathdependant options: • Floating rate options F(S) = max(0,S(T)-mean(S)) • ... • Options on options • ...
