John and Sam Put-call premium ratio was .34 for Friday. This equalled the December 9, 1994 low which was (at the time) a multi-year low for this indicator. For a long-term review of this indicator and the put-call volume ratio, see my post 31 in this thread. This ratio should be called the call-put premium ratio. I believe the IBD calculation uses put premiums in the denominator. The theory being as bearish sentiment rises, traders will pay up for puts relative to calls. It looks like we will hit a low in the next two days, if we didn't hit bottom on Friday. The SOX index may have bottomed at 270 already on Friday.
