plotOptionValues {multiAssetOptions}

Plot Option Values Over Time

Description

plotOptionValues plots the solution of the option PDE over time.

Usage

plotOptionValues(Y, fps)

Arguments

Y

list containing the items resulting from the multiAssetOption function.

fps

integer; number of frames per second of the animation.

Details

Animation occurs in backwards time, beginning from the option's expiry date, moving toward time = 0. This function applies only to options written on one or two underlying assets. Higher dimensional options are not plotted.
