Scilab code to estimate Asian call option using the control variates method
Hello everyone,
I need to estimate Asian call option based on the arithmetic mean by using the control variates method. Since we have the exacte value of the option with geometric mean (Black-Scholes formula), i choosed the geometric mean as a control variates for the arithmetic mean.
The problem is that i'm getting the same values (graph) for the confidence interval limits and the estimate values.
Please help me to fix it.
Thanks in advance.
