Abstract

The Heston model is an extension of the BS model. Among them, the volatility is no longer assumed to be constant and the variance follows a stochastic process. This paper compares the theoretical basis of the Heston model with the BS model, and options are priced and contrasted with ideal prices by using these two pricing models to find out which is better. The empirical analysis shows that Heston model has smaller errors for option pricing.
