To view or set the parameters of an open overview, proceed as follows:
Select the "Show parameter and filter settings" icon in the table toolbar or press the <CTRL>+<A> key combination.
In the extended table view, change the parameters in the top left-hand area. The parameters naturally differ from the example shown here depending on the analysis opened, but the principle is always the same. The parameters for the individual analyses are described in the following chapters.
To view the changes in the table, select the "Refresh view" icon.
Configure parameters
To change the default settings of the parameters, select the CONFIGURE PARAMETER TYPES command in the menu of the "Parameter" icon on the "Table" tab. The "Parameter types" dialog box opens; there are numerous options to choose from. Rearrange the parameters or assign new field types to them. Optimal settings are selected here by default; always make sure you make sensible assignments when configuring.
List of standard parameters of the quantitative analysis evaluations
The following list shows the most important parameters of the quantitative analysis. The individual analyses are already assigned sensibly set parameters by default.
Parameters
Description
Evaluation date
Evaluation date of the evaluations, which you can enter in the form "dd.mm.yy".
The default setting is the current date or the evaluation date entered in the input field on the "Start" tab.
Calculation period Vola (Days)
Period (in days) over which the historical volatility of the underlying is calculated. The value is also included in the key figures of the Black-Scholes model.
You can change the time period using the arrow buttons. Or select the period with the mouse and enter a different number of days.
Annualization factor
Behind this parameter are the trading days per year on which the calculation of volatility is based. If you do not enter anything here, the calculation will be carried out using the default setting (252 days).
Risk-free interest
Risk-free interest rate (safe short-term interest rate) on the evaluation date.
If you do not enter anything here, the interest rate specified in the safer interest configuration will be used for the evaluation date.
