An options probability distribution is a curve showing the market-implied likelihood of the underlying finishing at each price level by expiry. It is derived from the implied volatility of at-the-money options using a lognormal model. The PDF (probability density function) shows the relative likelihood at each price, while the CDF (cumulative distribution function) shows the probability of finishing below a given level. StrikeVue plots both for PNB with ±1σ, ±2σ and ±3σ bands.
