Creation
Syntax
Description
creates a BarrierOpt
= fininstrument(InstrumentType
,'Strike
',strike_value,'ExerciseDate
',exercise_date,'BarrierValue
',barrier_value)Barrier
instrument object for one or more
Barrier instruments by specifying InstrumentType
and
sets the properties for the
required name-value pair arguments Strike
,
ExerciseDate
, and
BarrierValue
.
sets optional properties using
additional name-value pairs in addition to the required arguments in the
previous syntax. For example, BarrierOpt
= fininstrument(___,Name,Value
)BarrierOpt =
fininstrument("Barrier",'Strike',100,'ExerciseDate',datetime(2019,1,30),'BarrierValue',110,'OptionType',"put",'ExerciseStyle',"European",'BarrierType',"DO",'Name',"barrier_option")
creates a Barrier
put option with an European exercise.
You can specify multiple name-value pair arguments.
Input Arguments
InstrumentType
— Instrument type
string with value "Barrier"
| string with value "Barrier"
| string array with values of "Barrier"
| character vector with value 'Barrier'
| cell array of character vectors with values of
'Barrier'
Instrument type, specified as a string with the value of
"Barrier"
, a character vector with the value of
'Barrier'
, an
NINST
-by-1
string array with
values "Barrier"
, or an
NINST
-by-1
cell array of
character vectors with values of 'Barrier'
.
Data Types: char
| string
| cell
Specify required
and optional pairs of arguments as
Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN
, where
Name
is the argument name and Value
is
the corresponding value. Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments,
but the order of the pairs does not matter.
Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose
Name
in quotes.
Example: BarrierOpt =
fininstrument("Barrier",'Strike',100,'ExerciseDate',datetime(2019,1,30),'BarrierValue',110,'OptionType',"put",'ExerciseStyle',"European",'BarrierType',"DO",'Name',"barrier_option")
Barrier
Name-Value Pair ArgumentsStrike
— Option strike value
nonnegative value | vector of nonnegative values
Option strike value, specified as the comma-separated pair
consisting of 'Strike'
and a scalar nonnegative
value or an NINST
-by-1
vector
of nonnegative values.
Data Types: double
ExerciseDate
— Option exercise date
datetime array | string array | date character vector
Option exercise date, specified as the comma-separated pair
consisting of 'ExerciseDate'
and a scalar or an
NINST
-by-1
vector using a
datetime array, string array, or date character vectors.
Note
For a European option, there is only one
ExerciseDate
on the option expiry
date.
To support existing code, Barrier
also
accepts serial date numbers as inputs, but they are not recommended.
If you use date character vectors or strings, the format must be
recognizable by datetime
because
the ExerciseDate
property is stored as a
datetime.
BarrierValue
— Barrier level
scalar numeric | numeric vector
Barrier level, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of
'BarrierLevel'
and a scalar numeric or an
NINST
-by-1
numeric
vector.
Data Types: double
Barrier
Name-Value Pair ArgumentsOptionType
— Option type
"call"
(default) | string with value "call"
or
"put"
| string array with values "call"
or
"put"
| character vector with value 'call'
or
'put'
| cell array of character vectors with values
'call'
or 'put'
Option type, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of
'OptionType'
and a scalar character vector or
string or an NINST
-by-1
cell
array of character vectors or string array.
A barrier call option gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy the underlying asset at a predetermined strike price if the barrier condition is met. A barrier put option gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to sell the underlying asset at a predetermined strike price if the barrier condition is met.
Data Types: char

and a scalar string
or character vector or an
NINST
-by-1
cell array of
character vectors or string array.
Note
For a Barrier

"American"
or
"European"

cell array of
character vectors or string array with one of the following values:
"UI"
— Up knock-inThis option becomes effective when the price of the underlying asset passes above the barrier level. If the underlying asset goes above the barrier level during the life of the option, the option holder has the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell (call or put) the underlying security at the strike price.
"UO"
— Up knock-outThis option gives the option holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell (call or put) the underlying security at the strike price as long as the underlying asset does not go above the barrier level during the life of the option. This option terminates when the price of the underlying security passes above the barrier level. If the spot price of the underlying asset reaches or exceeds the barrier level with an up-and-out option, the rebate is paid.
"DI"
— Down knock-inThis option becomes effective when the price of the underlying stock passes below the barrier level. If the underlying security goes below the barrier level during the life of the option, the option holder has the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell (call or put) the underlying security at the strike price. With a down-and-in option, the rebate is paid if the spot price of the underlying does not reach the barrier level during the life of the option. Note that a
Barrier
instrument using theFiniteDifference
pricer does not support American knock-in barrier options."DO"
— Down knock-upThis option gives the option holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell (call or put) the underlying asset at the strike price as long as the underlying asset does not go below the barrier level during the life of the option. This option terminates when the price of the underlying security passes below the barrier level. If the option is worthless when it expires, the option holder receives a rebate amount.
Option | Barrier Type | Payoff If Barrier Crossed | Payoff If Barrier Not Crossed |
---|---|---|---|
Call or Put | Down knock-out | Worthless | Standard Call or Put |
Call or Put | Down knock-in | Call or Put | Worthless |

More About
Barrier Option
A barrier option has not only a strike price but also a barrier level and sometimes a rebate.
A barrier option has a predetermined barrier level that is set at a specific price above or below the current price of the underlying asset. The barrier can be either "up and in" or "down and in" for knock-in options, meaning the option becomes active if the price reaches or exceeds the barrier level. Conversely, it can be "up and out" or "down and out" for knock-out options, meaning the option becomes null and void if the price reaches or exceeds the barrier level.
The payoff for this type of option depends on whether the underlying asset crosses
the predetermined trigger value (barrier level), indicated by
BarrierValue
, during the life of the option. If the option
cannot be exercised because the barrier level either has or has not been reached, a
fixed rebate amount is paid. For more information, see Barrier Option.
Version History
Introduced in R2020aR2022b: Serial date numbers not recommended
Although Barrier
supports serial date numbers,
datetime
values are recommended instead. The
datetime
data type provides flexible date and time
formats, storage out to nanosecond precision, and properties to account for time
zones and daylight saving time.
To convert serial date numbers or text to datetime
values, use the datetime
function. For example:
t = datetime(738427.656845093,"ConvertFrom","datenum"); y = year(t)
y = 2021
There are no plans to remove support for serial date number inputs.
