## Description

The Complete Guide to Option Pricing Formulas [Haug, Espen Gaarder] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Complete Guide to Option Pricing Formulas

Review: A must-have for all quantitative-finance students and practitioners - Simply put, Haug's book is a must-have for all students and practitioners in quantitative finance. The book has grown to over 500 pages in its second edition and contains a wealth of practical information related to option pricing formulae making this book a worthwhile purchase even if you already have the first edition. It is useful to anyone needing to implement, validate, or value financial derivatives in today's trading, market or credit risk management environment. My guess is that it will help you with a good 80% of the quantitative finance models you needs to implement or validate. It is written in a reference manual style which means the text is sparse and to the point. At the back it contains an excellent bibliography cross-referenced throughout the book just in case you need to consult a relevant academic paper with a higher verbosity level. In fact, for students the bibliography alone is well worth buying this book. The included CDROM contains VBA implementations of most of the formulas referenced in the book which is useful to fast-track your understanding of the practical implementation of the mathematics. As anything in life the book is not perfect. The title of the book suggesting it is the Complete Guide, by Haug's own admission is a bit ambitious. The major asset classes covered is still equities with a bit of commodity, energy and interest rates derivatives. Surprisingly, no credit derivatives are covered. The inclusion of VBA-code printouts in the text seems a bit superfluous as the code is available on the CDROM. This results in the book being a bit thicker than it should be, so maybe a next edition will be more kind to the environment! A solid 5-star effort.
Review: If you are a developer, get this book! - I have been implementing various options calculators in many programming languages on several operating systems for over 25 years. Since the first edition of Haug's book, it has proven to be invaluable. It saved me many hours of research. Does it contain typos? Sure it does. However, I have compared some of the formulas to those in the first edition, and most of them have been corrected. Is the published code to the algorithms the most efficient one? Not by a long shot. But these are minor details. If you are an experienced programmer, you will easily improve the code, and if you are implementing the formulas in VBA for Excel, the code is quite adequate. The most common complaint is that the book did not help in trading options. I would not know. Does Gray's Anatomy help a neurosurgeon? I doubt it. This book is clearly meant for the quants, risk managers, and developers, not for the traders. If one is looking for a pricing formula for any of the scores of various exotic options, this is the first place to look. Often the presented material provides everything needed. In the rare cases where it does not, copious references are provided.
