The Least-Squares Method for American Option Pricing
This article presents how to use the least-squares (LS) regression method to price the American options on basis of the algorithm in a paper by Clement, Lamberton & Protter[1]. The key to LS is the approximation of the conditional expectation functions which determine the optimal exercise strategy. In this paper, through the detailed description of the algorithm and presentation of convergence,...
متن کاملThe least squares method for option pricing revisited
It is shown that the the popular least squares method of option pricing converges even under very general assumptions. This substantially increases the freedom of creating different implementations of the method, with varying levels of computational complexity and flexible approach to regression. It is also argued that in many practical applications even modest non-linear extensions of standard...
متن کاملAn analysis of a least squares regression method for American option pricing
Recently, various authors proposed Monte-Carlo methods for the computation of American option prices, based on least squares regression. The purpose of this paper is to analyze an algorithm due to Longstaff and Schwartz. This algorithm involves two types of approximation. Approximation one: replace the conditional expectations in the dynamic programming principle by projections on a finite set ...
متن کاملStable Moving Least-Squares
It is a common procedure for scattered data approximation to use local polynomial fitting in the least-squares sense. An important instance is the Moving Least-Squares where the corresponding weights of the data site vary smoothly, resulting in a smooth approximation. In this paper we build upon the techniques presented by Wendland and present a somewhat simpler error analysis of the MLS approx...
متن کاملMoving Least Squares Coordinates
We propose a new family of barycentric coordinates that have closed-forms for arbitrary 2D polygons. These coordinates are easy to compute and have linear precision even for open polygons. Not only do these coordinates have linear precision, but we can create coordinates that reproduce polynomials of a set degree m as long as degree m polynomials are specified along the boundary of the polygon....
