Binomial Option Price Calculator (CRR)

Cox-Ross-Rubinstein tree pricing for European calls/puts with adjustable steps — watch it converge to Black-Scholes.

$—
Binomial price
Up factor u
Risk-neutral p

Formula

u = e^(σ√Δt); p = (e^(rΔt) − d)/(u − d); backward induction

The CRR lattice replicates the option with stock + bond at every node; as steps grow it converges to Black-Scholes (try 10 vs 200 steps). Its real power is flexibility — American exercise, discrete dividends and barriers all bolt on naturally.

References: Cox, Ross & Rubinstein (1979), JFE 7
