Detailed Description

Analytic pricing engine for double barrier binary options.

This engine implements C.H.Hui series ("One-Touch Double Barrier Binary Option Values", Applied Financial Economics 6/1996), as described in "The complete guide to option pricing formulas 2nd Ed", E.G. Haug, McGraw-Hill, p.180

The Knock In part of KI+KO and KO+KI options pays at hit, while the Double Knock In pays at end. This engine thus requires European esercise for Double Knock options, and American exercise for KIKO/KOKI.

greeks are calculated by simple numeric derivation

Tests

• the correctness of the returned value is tested by reproducing results available in literature.
