comment What is the meaning of the discounted process defined from the interest rate process?
I get that. But the question is trivial; you even guessed the answer inside. So I guess you can see why I say that if you were a professional quant, you wouldn't have asked it. You can accept the answer if you're OK with it.

Note that this question is really barely on topic: I guess you're not a professional quant are you? Anyway, a quick answer was enough, but please look at the faq in the future.

comment Calculating the probability of a price change using an options pricing formula
@BobJansen not necessarily no.... You would use $\mathbb{Q}$ only if you were willing to price an option. Using the GBM model is enough for him.

Could you please include the integral in the question and show us exactly where you're stuck in your equation solving?

comment Predict Market Direction, What is forecastable/unforecastable?
@vonjd Well I mean you can predict a range of magnitude, but a precise value is much more difficult because $P(|r_t|=x)=0 ~ \forall x$ in the continuous case. That's what I meant. But I see your point and I agree that volatility is more stable than market direction.
