ImpliedVolatility MT5
"ImpliedVolatility" is an EA developed to calculate the implied volatility of a stock option. As it is not observable, it is calculated by iteration using the Black & Scholes model.
The implied volatility is not the same as historical volatility, also known as realized volatility or statistical volatility. The historical volatility figure will measure past market changes and their actual results.It does not predict the direction in which the price change will proceed. For example, high volatility means a large price swing, but the price could swing upward (very high) downward (very low) or fluctuate between the two directions. Low volatility means that the price likely won't make broad, unpredictable changes.
The Black-Scholes Model, a widely used and well-known options pricing model, factors in current stock price, options strike price, time until expiration (denoted as a percent of a year), and risk-free interest rates. The Black-Scholes Model is quick in calculating any number of option prices.
Implied volatility does not have a basis on the fundamentals underlying the market assets but is based solely on price. Also, adverse news or big events may impact it.
