Weighted Monte Carlo (Avellaneda)

well the question is for this algorithm, by modifying the probability of your montecarlo, how do you know that you still have a risk neutral probability ?

Correlation matrix

Anyone knows a method to apply perturbations to a correlation matrix, preserving the positive definiteness of the matrix and hopefully very low time consuming ? Thanks

Trading index option / stock option dispersion

Sorry to bother FDAXHunter, but once again my question, you're talking implied correlations but how do you back implied correlations of each component ( so the matrix of implied corr) from an index ?
