Dear list,
(forgive me if this is a question already answered a hundred times here
- I was unable to find the threads)
I want to derive option prices (let's say european style for a start)
for a given sample of historical return data (let's say the last 50 DAX
returns) using monte carlo simulation. It is clear that the return data
has to be transformed into "risk neutral" data first. I thought I could
find a procedure for this task (data transformation and simulation) in R
because it should be a standard approach for assessing market option
prices. But I could not find anything.
Can somebody help?
Joachim
