Binomial probability distributions assume that at any one time there are only two possible outcomes. For example a fixed percentage size jump up or jump down in the market price of an asset.

A binomial tree or binomial lattice can then be built up from a series of binomial outcomes, to model asset prices or other variables over longer periods.
