Black76 Option Price
Calculate option price using the Black76 model, which is used for pricing options on futures contracts and forward contracts. This model is the futures-adapted version of Black-Scholes.
Use Cases:
- Price options on futures (commodity futures, interest rate futures)
- Value options on forward contracts
- Price commodity options (oil, gold, agricultural products)
- Calculate theoretical values for exchange-traded futures options
Model: Uses forward price instead of spot, eliminating the need for cost-of-carry.
