Hi,
The report mentions the following formula for the calculation of the changed option price -
dV = delta*dS + 0.5*gamma*(dS)² + theta*dt
I even found a similar formula (with some more terms) in assignment X3 Q1 -
dV = delta*dS + 0.5*gamma*(dS)² + vega*d(sigma) + rho*dr + theta*dt --- (1)
Though, I understand the reason behind the formula and could solve the question, I could not find this mentioned/derived in the course notes. Can anyone please let me know if I am missing something / a short derivation of this (the formula marked (1)) formula if possible?
Thank you in advance!
