Integrating the implied regularity into implied volatility models: A study on free arbitrage model

원문 초록

Implied volatility IV is a key metric in financial markets, reflecting market expectations of future price fluctuations. Research has explored IV's relationship with moneyness, focusing on its connection to the implied Hurst exponent H. Our study reveals that H approaches 1/2 when moneyness equals 1, marking a critical point in market efficiency expectations. We developed an IV model that integrates H to capture these dynamics more effectively. This model considers the interaction between H and the underlying-to-strike price ratio S/K, crucial for capturing IV variations based on moneyness. Using Optuna optimization across multiple indexes, the model outperformed SABR and fSABR in accuracy. This approach provides a more detailed representation of market expectations and IV-H dynamics, improving options pricing and volatility forecasting while enhancing theoretical and pratcical financial analysis.
