How in-depth do you plan to go? Black-Scholes? Fitting volatility curves?
- hippofluff 5y agoDefinitely not that deep! I would say those formulas/complex math are not things Stock Unlock believes are necessary for 99% of people to learn. Surprisingly, most people don't understand price ratios, whats each line of a financial report means (i.e. operating cash flow vs investing cash flow). So you can maybe label it "investing 101", "Intelligent Investor" type stuff.
- moneywoes 5y agoCan you give more info on fitting volatility curves?
- melony 5y agoLookup the term Implied Volatility Surface, it is a visualisation of an option's volatility and value across time (usually derived from black-scholes I think, assuming european style options, american ones use others like binomial). Find a decent textbook on quantitative finance related to options and derivatives (as in actual mathematical modeling, not candlestick horoscopes), they would be able to explain it better.
