What is the Black-Scholes Model?
The Black-Scholes model (or Black-Scholes-Merton) is a mathematical model for the dynamics of a financial market containing derivative investment instruments.
It provides a theoretical estimate of the price of European-style options. The model assumes the price of the underlying asset follows a geometric Brownian motion with constant drift and volatility.
Our calculator uses this standard industry model to derivate the Fair Value of call and put options, helping traders identify mispriced premiums in the market.

Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is this Black-Scholes calculator?
Extremely accurate. We use the standard Black-Scholes-Merton formula with high-precision floating point math. It matches professional terminal outputs for European-style options.
Does this calculator support American options?
Strictly speaking, Black-Scholes is for European options (exercise at expiry). However, for non-dividend paying stocks, American call prices are identical to European calls. For inputs with dividends or American puts, this serves as a close approximation.
What are the Option Greeks?
Greeks measure the sensitivity of an option's price. Delta measures price change vs stock price. Gamma is the rate of change of Delta. Theta measures time decay. Vega measures sensitivity to volatility. Rho measures sensitivity to interest rates.
