Options contain many investor’s future views toward future, thus many scholars estimate the volatility in Black-Scholes model by using option data. In this thesis, we provide a method to estimate volatility under Black-Scholes model. In our method, we consider a generalized linear regression to estimate the volatility under the Black-Scholes model by using all options. Afterwards, we use the estimated volatility to calculate Greeks and do dynamic hedging for TAIEX options at different strike price. The empirical results show that hedging using this method outperforms other benchmark methods, i.e., using
implied volatilities or using standard deviations of historical log returns. |
