Abstract

This paper introduces a novel method for asset and option trading in a binomial scenario. This method uses nonparametric predictive inference (NPI), a statistical methodology within im- precise probability theory. Instead of inducing a single probability distribution from the existing observations, the imprecise method used here induces a set of probability distributions. Based on the induced imprecise probability, one could form a set of conservative trading strategies for assets and options. By integrating NPI imprecise probability and expectation with the classical nancial binomial tree model, two rational decision routes for asset trading and for European option trading are suggested. The performances of these trading routes are investigated by com- puter simulations. The simulation results indicate that the NPI based trading routes presented in this paper have good predictive properties.
