Description

BACKGROUND:
Regardless of the reasons for trading options or the strategy employed, it is important to understand the factors that determine the value of an option.

The Black-Scholes Model
Is probably the most widely used and best-known theoretical option-valuation model. A theoretical model is a forward-looking model that attempts to determine what the option should sell for in the market given the option terms and the underlying stock’s salient points.

According to the Options Industry Council, a trade group, three factors generally affect the price of an option under Black-Scholes model:
• The option's intrinsic value.
• The likelihood of a significant change in the stock.
• The cost of money, or interest rates.

LEARNING OUTCOMES:
Upon the completion of this module, users will be able to:
• Analyse and interpret option valuation and trading, technical analysis, pricing- numerical and Black-Scholes models

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
