Asian Greeks

I have the formula for pricing asian options with set periods, the Curran approximation. My issue is how to calculate the greeks during the averaging periods. Does anyone have any ideas/hints/formulas for calculating gamma, vega, delta and theta?

You can, of course, get the Greeks with numerical derivatives if you have the pricing function... I don't think there are analytic forms for the Greeks under Curran, though you might try to derive them along the same lines as the price.

i'm sure you know, but just in case remember the delta jumps over averaging points
