Exotics Add In. The Advanced Exotics Add-in calculates values for the following exotic options: Down-and-In Single Barrier: Underlying instrument price must reach a lower barrier (knock-in boundary) before the option is exercisable. If the barrier is not reached by the expiry time, the rebate is received instead. Up-and-In Single Barrier: Underlying instrument price must reach an upper barrier (knock-in boundary) before the option is exercisable. If the barrier is not reached by the expiry time, the rebate is received instead. Down-and-Out Single Barrier: Underlying instrument price must NOT reach a lower barrier (knock-out boundary) during the option’s life. If the barrier is reached, the holder of the option is paid the rebate amount immediately, and the option simultaneously expires with no further pay outs. Up-and-out Single Barrier: Underlying instrument price must NOT reach an upper barrier (knock-out boundary) during the option’s life. If the barrier is reached, the holder of the option is paid the rebate amount immediately, and the option simultaneously expires with no further pay outs.

Single Touch: A touch option is paid or received immediately if the underlying asset price hits or crosses a predetermined barrier level. Multi-Touch: A multi-touch option pays a fixed payoff value anytime the underlying price reaches ANY one of a defined set of barriers. You can have any number of barriers within the model.
