The article presents a method for parametric estimation of instantaneous variance in the case of non-Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck stochastic volatility process by means of the iterated filtering and realized variance estimator. The method is applied to realized variance of S&P500 index data. Empirical application is accompanied with simulation study to examine performance of the estimation technique.

The VIX call options for the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models will be discussed. Derivatives written on the VIX, which is the most popular volatility measurement, have been traded actively very much. In this paper, we give representations of the VIX call option price for the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models: non-Gaussian Ornstein–Uhlenbeck type stochastic volatility models. Moreover, we provide representations of the locally risk-minimizing strategy constructed by a combination of the underlying riskless and risky assets. Remark that the representations obtained in this paper are efficient to develop a numerical method using the fast Fourier transform. Thus, numerical experiments will be implemented in the last section of this paper.
