Open Live Script

This example shows how to obtain information on a recombining trinomial tree's shape.

Create a HW tree by loading the example file.

load deriv.mat;

With treeviewer you can see the general shape of the HW interest-rate tree.

treeviewer(HWTree)

Figure Tree Viewer contains 2 axes objects and other objects of type uicontrol. Axes object 1 contains 41 objects of type line. Axes object 2 is empty.

Use trintreeshape to display the shape of the binomial tree.

[NumLevels, NumPos, IsPriceTree] = trintreeshape(HWTree) 
NumLevels = 
4

NumPos = 1×4

     1     1     1     1


IsPriceTree = 1×4

Input Arguments

collapse all

Recombining price or interest-rate trinomial tree, specified as a struct that is created using one of the following functions:

Data Types: struct

Output Arguments

Number of time levels of tree, returned as a numeric.

Length of the state vectors in each level, returned as a 1-by-NUMLEVELS vector.

Number of state vectors in each level, returned as a 1-by-NUMLEVELS vector.
