Abstract
Considering the floating interest rate and the uncertainty of the strike price, we derive the pricing formulas of lookback options including lookback call option and lookback put option. Furthermore, we give the numerical algorithms to illustrate our results and analyze the relationships between the price of lookback options and all the parameters.
