SYNOPSIS

9       DiscreteHedging
10

DESCRIPTION

12       DiscreteHedging is an example of using the QuantLib Monte Carlo simula‐
13       tion framework.
14
15       By simulation, DiscreteHedging computes profit and loss of  a  discrete
16       interval  hedging  strategy  and  compares  with  the  outcome with the
17       results of Derman and Kamal's Goldman Sachs Equity Derivatives Research
18       Note  "When  You  Cannot  Hedge Continuously: The Corrections to Black-
19       Scholes".
