Calculating Option Greeks with the Black-Scholes Calculator

Black-Scholes Calculator

When you calculate an option's price in the Black-Scholes Calculator, the Greeks will also be calculated at the same time, because they need the very same input parameters as option prices:

  • Underlying price
  • Strike price
  • Volatility
  • Interest rate
  • Dividend yield
  • Time to expiration

You can see the resulting option prices in column H and the Greeks – delta, gamma, theta, vega, and rho – in columns J-N, in row 4 for a call option and in row 6 for a put option.
