OPTIONS RISK CALCULATOR
The tool is structured into four layers:
Input β the user selects the underlying asset, option type, and market parameters (spot price, volatility, interest rate, time to maturity) and can combine multiple positions into a portfolio.
Pricing model β the appropriate model is automatically selected based on the option type: Black-Scholes for European vanilla options, binomial tree for American and simple exotic structures, and Monte Carlo for complex payoffs (barrier, Asian, etc.).
Risk calculation β this generates calculations for Greeks (Ξ, Ξ, Ξ, Vega, Ο), VaR/CVaR, P&L scenarios, and implied volatilityβcalculated for individual options and aggregated across the entire portfolio.
Output β an interactive dashboard featuring a payoff chart, a Greeks panel, a risk table, and an optional volatility surface (3D vol surface).
API enables live access to market data.
