Volatility Modeling & Derivatives Research
Model realized and implied volatility with GARCH, stochastic and local volatility approaches, build arbitrage-aware volatility surfaces, and run disciplined derivatives research.
This professional course brings pricing models, Greeks and volatility surfaces together into a maintainable software system. You will design a modular analytics library, expose it through FastAPI services, persist option chains and surfaces in PostgreSQL, and build a React interface for chains, payoff analysis and risk views. Testing, performance, observability and deployment with Docker are treated as first-class parts of the build.
