I can't seem to figure out how to do the following:



Compute the implied correlation $ρ_imp$ by using the observed market price $M_quote$ of a Margrabe option, and solving the non-linear equation shown below:



$$M_quote = e^−(q_0T)*S_0(0)*N(d+)−e^(−q_1T)*S_1(0)*N(d−)$$



Where:



$d± = [log(S_0(0)/S_1(0))+(q_1 − q_0 ±σ^2/2)T]/ σ√T$



(note that d− = d+ − σT),



and



$σ = sqrt[σ^2_0 + σ^2_1 − 2ρ_impσ_0 σ_1)]$

          We know that $-1lerho_imple 1$ so perhaps the simplest approach is to try the possible values $rho_imp=-1,-0.9,-0.8,cdots,0.8,0.9,+1$, to calculate resulting $sigma$ values, d± values, and $M_quote$ values, then see which of these is closest to the observed market price. If desired you can then search a finer grid between two adjacent assumed correlations to pin it down more precisely. It is a manual but relatively simple method.
