Synopsis

opt_bs_put_delta(strike,price,volatility,days_to_maturity,rate)

Description

Uses the Black-Scholes model to calculate the "delta" of a European put option struck at @strike on an asset with price @price.

(The delta of an option is the rate of change of its price with respect to the price of the underlying asset.)

@volatility is the annualized volatility, in percent, of the asset for the period through to the exercise date. @days_to_maturity the number of days to exercise, and @rate is the risk-free interest rate to the exercise date, in percent.

The returned value will be expressed as the rate of change of option value per unit change in @price.
