Abstract: Abstract In this work, we build two environments, namely the modified QLBS and RLOP models, from a mathematics perspective which enables RL methods in option pricing through replicating by portfolio. We implement the environment specifications (the source code can be found at https://github.com/owen8877/RLOP), the learning algorithm, and agent parametrization by a neural network. The learned optimal hedging strategy is compared against the BS prediction. The effect of various factors is considered and studied based on how they affect the optimal price and position.
