Determine theoretical option prices with this advanced Black-Scholes Calculator

Larry McMillan stresses in his seminars and books that option traders must always trade with a model. The Option Evaluation Software is that model. Using the Black-Scholes model, The Option Evaluation Software calculates option values and related statistics, such as implied volatility and "the Greeks,” and displays them in a clean, easy-to-read grid-like display. It is a necessary piece of software for any serious option trader.

What is the Black-Scholes model?

The Black-Scholes model, introduced in 1973 by Fischer Black and Myron Scholes, is an option valuation model that is the standard method of pricing options.

Why use the Option Evaluation Software?

  • It can help you determine what your option position would be worth at any stock and volatility
    level at any time.
  • It can help you determine which option to buy, and how many contracts.
  • The Option Evaluation Software can save you money over time by helping you determine what
    options are over / underpriced.

How to use the Option Evaluation Software

The Option Evaluation Software is actually quite easy to use. Simply enter the underlying price, price increment, strike price, strike price increment, current T-Bill interest rate, and historical volatility and press “calculate.” The software will then display a matrix of put and call values for six strike prices and eight underlying prices.

Performance Results: Past performance results for advisory services and educational products are shown for illustration and example only, and are hypothetical.

HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN. IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM.

ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.
