Description
Option pricing is mainly based on ideal market conditions which are well represented by the Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) as market model. We study the effect of non-ideal market conditions on the price of the option. We focus our attention on two crucial aspects appearing in real markets: The influence of heavy tails and the effect of colored noise. We will see that both effects have opposite consequences on option pricing.
