Volatility Surface

Christoph Breig

Hi all,

 

is there any possibility to create a volatiltiy surface from which I can draw an implied vola for a given moneyness and a given maturity (including extrapolation)?

 

Cheers and thx

Chris

Not for a given moneyness; current implementations draw by maturity and strike.
If that's good enough for you, you can use the BlackVarianceSurface
class; be aware though that it interpolates on variance (vol^2), not
on volatility.
