A matched asymptotic expansions approach to continuity corrections for discretely sampled options. Part 1: barrier options.
- Abstract:
-
We discuss the `continuity correction' that should be applied to relate the prices of discretely sampled barrier options and their continuously-sampled equivalents. Using a matched asymptotic expansions approach we show that the correction of Broadie, Glasserman & Kou (Mathematical Finance 7, 325 (1997)) can be applied in a very wide variety of cases. We calculate the correction to higher order in terms of the expansion parameter (the scaled time between resets) and we show how to apply ...
