This document provides steps for estimating the parameters u, d, and p needed for the binomial option pricing model. It outlines obtaining the stock's expected return and volatility from historical data. Then it describes equating expressions for the expected stock price under real-world and risk-neutral probabilities to derive the values of u, d, and p in terms of the stock's volatility and time step. The example shows how to apply these steps to estimate the parameters for a specific stock.

depends on the value of risk-neutral probability, p The value of p depends on the estimates of the up-move & downmove, u & d respectively How should we estimate u, d & p?
Extensions of Binomial A. Inputs: stocks expected return () & volatility () B. Time step: t C. Given the inputs in A the volatility during time t = step t
Step 1: Expression for expected stock price
using real world probabilities (p*) Step 2: Equating step 1 with expected stock price based on its expected return & time interval t Step 3: Deriving the value of p* (11.11) Step 4: Expression for variance of stock return based on the real world binomial tree Step 5: Equating Step 4 to variance over t (11.12)
Step 6: Substituting for p from 11.11 into
11.12 Step 7: Solution to the equation in Step 6 by ignoring the terms t2 & higher powers this gives the values of: u & d: 11.13 & 11.14 Step 8: Expressions for estimating the value of p (the risk-neutral probability of up-move): 11.15 & 11.16 Example 1: Estimation of u, d & p (Hull/p271)
