I'm really sorry to bother you like this with lookback option....but i cannot be at peace if something is puzzling my
mind.....
For lookback option, I understand tht thr are 2 types of lookback options - One with fixed...
Hi David,
Thanks for yr prompt response.
Will it be right on my part to think of Lookback Option as the option which gives a payoff between
minimum stock price and the fixed stike price (Minimum for a put and Maximum for call) ?
And Shout Option as the one whose pay-off is maximum...
Hi David...
I have few doubts on exotics....
1) Barrier Options - In study notes, it is mentioned tht for down and in and up and in options,

Hi David,
I was watching your 2nd movie on Quant and I have a question relating to normal distribution therein.
You mentioned that many dice together can be construed as a normal distribution.
Till now, we've always interpreted normal distribution as the one which is "continuous" and...

Hi David !
I'm here again for a question on Poisson Distrn......
Well, in the random quiz Q No. 15 - Set 15 ....you computed P (x = 10) while ideally it should have been 5. And in the second set, you have computed P (x=20).
For me, ideally we shud take lambda for the first case as 10...
Hi David !
This is w.r.t. Qn 9 - Random Set 1 - Quant Analysis.
For calculating - P(X=0), going as per the formula - the denominator shud have been 0 factorial and hence the P(X=0) should be infinity.
However, in yr solution, you have not considered the denominator 0 factorial at all ...
