In this paper, we use extensive empirical data sets from Shanghai 50ETF (SH50ETF) and SH50ETF options markets in China to study how regime-switching jump-diffusion models improve goodness of fit and option pricing performance. Firstly, the model parameters are estimated by using maximum likelihood estimation and the numerical analysis indicates that the regime-switching jump-diffusion models outperform a range of other models. Secondly, the analytical option pricing formulae are obtained via the fast Fourier transform and the empirical results using the proposed option pricing formulae are presented. Finally, we find that the calculated option prices are fairly consistent with the actual market prices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
