Characteristics Of Implied Volatility In The S&P100 Options With European-Style Exercise

Sadi Fadda

Abstract


While the topic of volatility has been much further developed in the last three decades, I will try to revise the implied volatility and its characteristics based on the ten day data of Standard and Poor’s 100 index European-style options (XEO). Having calculated the implied volatility of the collected options, further analyses are to study the impact of two important factors of time to maturity and moneyness on the value of implied volatility.

Keywords


Implied volatility, options moneyness, time to maturity, European-Style Options
