Pricing Continuously Resettled Contingent Claims
Abstract This paper is a study of continuously resettled contingent claims prices in a stochastic economy. As special cases, the relationship between futures and forward prices is analyzed, and a preference-free expression is derived for these prices, as well as the price of a continuously resettled futures option, whose formula differs from Black's futures option pricing formula due to the effects of marking-to-market the changes in the futures option premium.
