Touch

Touch instrument object

Since R2020b

Description

Create and price a Touch instrument object for one or more Touch instruments using this workflow:

Use fininstrument to create a Touch instrument object for one or more Touch instruments.
Use finmodel to specify a BlackScholes, Bates, Merton, or Heston model for the Touch instrument object.
Choose a pricing method.
- When using a BlackScholes model, use finpricer to specify a BlackScholes or a VannaVolga pricing method for one or more Barrier instruments.
- When using a BlackScholes, Heston, Bates, or Merton model, use finpricer to specify an AssetMonteCarlo pricing method for one or more Touch instruments.

For more information on this workflow, see Get Started with Workflows Using Object-Based Framework for Pricing Financial Instruments.

For more information on the available models and pricing methods for a Touch instrument, see Choose Instruments, Models, and Pricers.

Creation

Syntax

TouchOpt = fininstrument(InstrumentType,'ExerciseDate',exercise_date,'BarrierValue',barrier_value,'PayoffValue',payoff_value)

TouchOpt = fininstrument(___,Name,Value)

Description

TouchOpt = fininstrument(InstrumentType,'ExerciseDate',exercise_date,'BarrierValue',barrier_value,'PayoffValue',payoff_value) creates a Touch instrument object for one or more Touch instruments by specifying InstrumentType and sets properties using the required name-value pair arguments ExerciseDate, BarrierValue, and PayoffValue.

example

TouchOpt = fininstrument(___,Name,Value) sets optional properties using additional name-value pair arguments in addition to the required arguments in the previous syntax. For example, TouchOpt = fininstrument("Touch",'ExerciseDate',datetime(2019,1,30),'BarrierValue',110,'PayoffValue',130,'BarrierType',"OT",'PayoffType',"Expiry",'Name',"Touch_option") creates a Touch option with an expiry payoff type. You can specify multiple name-value pair arguments.

Input Arguments

expand all

`InstrumentType` — Instrument type
string with value `"Touch"` | string array with values of `"Touch"` | character vector with value `'Touch'` | cell array of character vectors with values of `'Touch'`

Instrument type, specified as a string with the value of "Touch", a character vector with the value of 'Touch', an NINST-by-1 string array with values of "Touch", or an NINST-by-1 cell array of character vectors with values of 'Touch'.

Data Types: char | cell | string

Name-Value Arguments

Specify required and optional pairs of arguments as Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN, where Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the pairs does not matter.

Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose Name in quotes.

Example: TouchOpt = fininstrument("Touch",'ExerciseDate',datetime(2019,1,30),'BarrierValue',110,'PayoffValue',130,'BarrierType',"OT",'PayoffType',"Expiry",'Name',"Touch_option")

Required Touch Name-Value Pair Arguments

expand all

`ExerciseDate` — Option exercise date
datetime array | string array | date character vector

Option exercise date, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'ExerciseDate' and a scalar or an NINST-by-1 vector using a datetime array, string array, or date character vectors.

To support existing code, Touch also accepts serial date numbers as inputs, but they are not recommended.

If you use date character vectors or strings, the format must be recognizable by datetime because the ExerciseDate property is stored as a datetime.

`BarrierValue` — Barrier level
scalar numeric | numeric vector

Barrier level, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'BarrierValue' and a scalar numeric or an NINST-by-1 numeric vector.

Data Types: double

`PayoffValue` — Option payoff value
scalar numeric | numeric vector

Option payoff value, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'PayoffValue' and a scalar numeric or an NINST-by-1 numeric vector.

Data Types: double

Optional Touch Name-Value Pair Arguments

expand all

`BarrierType` — Barrier type
`"OT"` (default) | string with value `"OT"` or `"NT"` | string array with values `"OT"` or `"NT"` | character vector with value `'OT'` or `'NT'` | cell array of character vectors with values `'OT'` or `'NT'`

Barrier type, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'BarrierType' and a scalar string or character vector or an NINST-by-1 cell array of character vectors or string array with one of the following values:

'OT' — One-touch
The one-touch option provides a payoff if the underlying asset ever trades at or beyond the BarrierValue. Otherwise, the PayoffValue is zero.
'NT' — No-touch
The no-touch option provides a payoff if the underlying asset never trades at or beyond the BarrierValue. Otherwise, the PayoffValue is zero.

Data Types: char | cell | string

`PayoffType` — Payoff type
`"Hit"` (default) | string with value `"Hit"` or `"Expiry"` | string array with values `"Hit"` or `"Expiry"` | character vector with value `'Hit'` or `'Expiry'` | cell array of character vectors with values `'Hit'` or `'Expiry'`

Payoff type, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'PayoffType' and a scalar string or character vector or an NINST-by-1 cell array of character vectors or string array. You can specify "Expiry" only when you specify 'OT' as the BarrierType.

Note

When you use a BlackScholes pricer, only the "Hit" PayoffType is supported.

Data Types: char | cell | string

`Name` — User-defined name for instrument
`" "` (default) | string | string array | character vector | cell array of character vectors

User-defined name for one of more instruments, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Name' and a scalar string or character vector or an NINST-by-1 cell array of character vectors or string array.

Data Types: char | cell | string

Touch Option

A touch option (also known as a binary barrier option or American digital) is a path-dependent option where the existence and payout depend on the underlying spot's movement during the option life.

The one-touch option pays out if the underlying spot ever trades at or beyond a predetermined barrier level, and zero otherwise. The barrier can be an upper or lower level, triggering a payout for a one-touch call or put option respectively if the price touches or exceeds the barrier during the option's term. The option expires at a fixed date, paying out if the barrier is touched at any point during the term, regardless of the price at expiration.

For more information, see One-Touch and Double One-Touch Options.

R2022b: Serial date numbers not recommended

Although Touch supports serial date numbers, datetime values are recommended instead. The datetime data type provides flexible date and time formats, storage out to nanosecond precision, and properties to account for time zones and daylight saving time.

To convert serial date numbers or text to datetime values, use the datetime function. For example:

t = datetime(738427.656845093,"ConvertFrom","datenum");
y = year(t)

y =

        2021

There are no plans to remove support for serial date number inputs.
