I want information on the probability distribution of equity price changes, and how this distribution varies with time. In other words, I want to see plots of p(c) versus c (or equations relating them) where p(c) is the probability that the price of an equity will change by an amount c in time T. I'd also like to know how p(c) varies with T. Why do I want this? I'm trying to produce a model for the intrinsic value of an equity option, i.e. ignoring factors such as market trends, option supply and demand etc. This is just for fun, by the way. My first attempt used a simple triangular p(c) and produced some interesting, if not wildly incorrect results, so I'd like to try again with something more realistic.
