Option Pricing?

Stephen — Tue, 07 Aug 2007 17:28:37 -0400

By using the function below in ML, you get both the call
and put prices.

[CallPrice, PutPrice] = blsprice(Price, Strike, Rate,
Time, Volatility, DividendRate)

On the other hand, if you use A=blsprice(...), A is the
call price.

Is there anyway to get the put prices only?

Thanks,
Stephen

Thanks for your response.

What if I want to assign the put price to a variable, i.e.
b=Putprice...?

Thanks

Maybe I don't understand what you're asking for, but what about:
[b, b] = blsprice(Price, Strike, Rate, ...
Time, Volatility, DividendRate)

OR

[PutPrice, PutPrice] = blsprice(Price, Strike, Rate, ...
Time, Volatility, DividendRate)
b=PutPrice;
