Abstract

This paper examines a path-dependent contingent claim called the window double barrier option, including standard but also more exotic features such as combinations of single and double barriers. Price properties and hedging issues are discussed, as well as financial applications. Explicit formulae are provided, along with simple techniques for their implementation. Numerical results show that they compare very favourably with alternative pricing approaches in terms of accuracy and efficiency.
