2-factor Hull White model

Hello all,

I am working on my school project and try to implement 2 factor Hull White model.

I am on the stage where I need to apply correlation:

Joint probabilities:
Pdu=Pd*Qu-epsilon,

where Pd-probability down of 1 tree
Qu-probability of up of 2 tree.
Epsilon=correlation/36

In other words with, with some values of correlation, joint probability becomes negative.
The paper suggests to find the minimum correlation that will be positive and use it.

Any suggestions how can I find the smallest correlation that will make the joint probability positive.
Thank you!
