MAX PAIN.....why such a big difference????

I think Ben A. calculates Max Pain from all options sold over the last 3 months. Some early options are just bad guesses. The more recent the purchase the better the prediction. I'm not sure if you can get option information coupled with the date the option was created (you can't at the CBOE free site anyway) but if you could a MAX PAIN with weighted numbers would be a lot more accurate.
