hi John,
The normal formula is to divide number of shares by N(d1).
However they sometimes divide number of shares by (N(d1) * contract size). Why do they multiply by contract size?
Also why to hedge an amount we divide it by N(d1) *contract size.
Is this a formula?
thankyou
But I explain all this in my lectures!!!
If there is a fixed contract size (which there is always likely to be) then we need to divide my the contract size in order to get the number of contracts.
thankyou!
You are welcome 🙂
