Abstract
It is a challenged topic of option pricing with multi-asset. This paper uses Monte Carlo (MC) simulation to valuate options which possess multiple assets. Firstly, given correlative coefficients, an algorithm to generate normal distributed random variables is established. Then, MC scheme is proposed for pricing European, American, Asian and Lookback options. Numerical experiments illustrate that MC simulation is an efficient and accurate method. With MC path number 8000, the relative errors of numerical European options are less than 0.5%. The stability experiments of MC algorithm are also carried out. As an advantage, the proposed MC algorithm can be extended to more general options such as Strangles and CEV options.
