What is the synthetic price?

The “Synthetic Price” calculation uses an algorithm that incorporates market data and option details to estimate implied volatility and generate a theoretical option price. Inputs to the algorithm include but are not limited to the underlying asset price, interest rates, dividends estimates, option right, strike price, time to expiration, and volatility estimate. The synthetic price is updated continuously as market conditions change.

The “Synthetic Price” column can be added to the Option Chain window.
