Description
Summary:The main goal of this paper is to evaluate the impact of the exchange rate volatility in price prediction of derivative securities in the Brazilian capital markets using an artificial neural network technique, given the Black & Scholes Model limitations. For this purpose a multiplayer, feedforward neural network, trained by the backpropagation algorithm model, to perform the prediction of the Telemar option prices was developed. The model results show that price estimates are close to the real values, mainly when appended to the exchange rate, confirming that the performance of neural network is superior to other results. The inclusion of the exchange rate in neural networks technique results in a better price forecasting for the options, because the volatility in the price of the underlying asset is caused by temporary arbitrage of quotes among the national and foreign stock markets where the company is listed.
