  • Abstract
    In this paper, trinomial tree option pricing algorithms for Threshold-GARCH model are presented. A simple computational method, called the "median " algorithm is proposed; moreover, extensions of the interpolating methods proposed by Ritchken & Trevor (1999) and Cakici & Topyan (2000) are included. The numerical results show that the proposed "median" method is not only accurate, but also offers a significant reduction in computing-time.
