The problem behind this paper is the proper measurement of the degree of quality/acceptability/distance to arbitrage of trades. We are narrowing the class of coherent acceptability indices introduced by Cherny and Madan (2007) by imposing an additional mathematical property. For this, we introduce the notion of a conca…
