What is equivalent to a portfolio consisting of an up-and-in put option and an up-and-out put option where the barrier, strike price, and time to maturity are the same for the two options?
解释:
The portfolio is equivalent to a plain vanilla put option. If the barrier is hit, the up-and-in option provides the plain vanilla option payoff and the up-and-out option provides no payoff. If the barrier is not hit, the up-and-out option provides the plain vanilla option payoff and the up-and-in option provides no payoff.
为什么barriar hit 是no payoff 呢?当敲出时,不要求行权或不行权吗?
