Abstract

In this paper, first as a basic formula for the discrete stochastic calculus , we give the multidimensional version of the discrete Itˆo formula. Then we price a certain type of lookback options in the discrete Black Sholes Model and find the discrete hedging strategy of these exotic options. We note that these results are concrete example of discrete Kennedy martingales.
