Pricing and Hedging Derivative Securities

Preface

This is a partial draft of a python-based introduction to derivative security pricing.

The chat icon below the book title on the top left is a link to a chatbot that can answer questions using the book as a source. Like any chatbot, it can make mistakes, so check its answers with the sources in the book that it should provide. The Github icon next to the chat icon is a link to a Github repository of Jupyter notebooks. The notebooks contain all of the code in the book and include buttons. The notebooks can be opened in Colab or downloaded from the Github repo (or you can clone the repo). The icon to the right of the Github icon enables toggling between light and dark modes.

Figures in the text are interactive. Hover your cursor over plot elements to see additional data. Also, hover over footnote numbers to see footnotes.

The book is Hypothesis enabled. Click the icons at the top right to log in or sign up and to create annotations or to highlight text. The annotations and highlights will be visible to you in subsequent visits to the book once you log in to your Hypothesis account. We prefer that you do not post annotations or highlights to the Public account.
