| Description : A model used to simulate equity or index prices taking into account stochastic volatility effects. The main feature of the model is that the price process follows a geometric brownian motion with a stochasticvolatility while the volatility follows a square root mean reverting process. Usually the correlation is negative, so that a lowering in the stock price is correlated with an increasing in the volatility.Once installed the plug-in offers the possibility of using two new processes, the Heston process and the Heston time dependent drift process and to calibrate them to a series of call prices. |
