Stochastic path-dependent volatility models for price–storage dynamics in natural gas markets and discrete-time swing option pricing
Need to know
- A novel stochastic path-dependent volatility model is proposed with path-dependence in both price volatility and storage increments.
- The well-posedness of the proposed model is discussed.
- Model calibrations are conducted for both the price and storage dynamics using Consensus-based optimisation (CBO) method.
- We discuss the pricing problem of discrete-time swing options using the dynamic programming principle, and a deep learning-based method is proposed for this non-Markovian setting. A numerical algorithm is provided, followed by a convergence analysis result for the deep-learning approach.
Abstract
This paper is devoted to the price–storage dynamics in natural gas markets. A novel stochastic path-dependent volatility model is introduced with path dependence in both price volatility and storage increments. Model calibrations are conducted for both the price and storage dynamics. Further, we discuss the pricing problem of discrete-time swing options using the dynamic programming principle, and propose a deep-learning-based method for this non-Markovian setting. A numerical algorithm is provided, and convergence analysis results are given for the deep-learning approach. The methodologies developed for calibration, numerical pricing and deeplearning approximation are broadly applicable, and we expect them to support further advances in the modeling and risk management of energy markets.
