Hello all, I am quite new to ql, so bear with me if I'm off in my post. I need to implement swing option pricing. the setting under which I want to implement this is as in this paper: http://www.springerlink.com/content/f1m78783l64rj300/ - Basically I m going to use OU process - One factor model for dynamics of forward curve (as in above paper) - using trinomial tree for pricing engine - defining a new instrument as swing option. I need to have a concrete one factor model class for implementing some option pricing in commodities. I need this really to implement calculation of spot price which is comprised of a stochastic part (solution to OU process) plus a deterministic part. as I can see the OneFactorModel in short rate model is an abstract class, from which i dont need shortRateDynamics, shortRateTree etc. I think All I really need is something that using which I can build a tree representing the dynamics ofmy OU process. My question is that shall I use an existing class here, or shall derive my own ? Any help is greatly appreciated. |
