Price Using Monte Carlo Simulation

Price basket, Asian, spread, and vanilla options using Monte Carlo simulation with Longstaff-Schwartz option pricing model

Use Monte Carlo simulations to model the probability of different outcomes in a process that cannot be easily predicted due to the intervention of random variables. The Longstaff-Schwartz Least Squares approach is used to estimate the expected payoff of the American option type which allows for early exercise.
