What is the approach for the option pricing in real-world transaction

October 11th, 2021, 10:07 pm

As the BS formula is not that useful in the real-world transaction for the option pricing. I want to know, in the daily transaction, what are the realistic approach the traders are employing to calculate the price of options. Thanks!

The formula is totally useful, not to mention used. You just need to know what volatility to use.
