By the Itô formula,
To compute the Stratonovich integral correction, apply the Itô formula also to , which is twice continuously differentiable because is . The continuous local martingale part of is , where is the continuous local martingale part of . A finite-variation process has zero quadratic covariation with , and the quadratic variation of a stochastic integral together with polarization identity gives
All these statements can be localized to compact ranges of , so unbounded derivatives create no global integrability requirement. Substitute this identity into the Stratonovich integral to obtain the Stratonovich chain rule:
This is the integrated meaning of the requested differential identity; there is no extra second-order term after the Stratonovich integral correction has been included.
