Hi
IMHO I think you have to implement a new AsianAutoCallablePathPricer which is
derived from EarlyExercisePathPricer<Path>. The operator() of this pricer
should perform the averaging over the previous ten days and implement the
autocallable feature. The Bermudan feature, is it a issuer calll right or an
investor call right?
>From the model point of view pricing this sturtures is a challange. I've seen
people using hybrid stoch vol equity + Hull White interest rate processes to
price this products. Simple local vol + deterministic interest rates can lead
to "wrong" prices.
regards
Klaus
