steve,

i dont believe you can prove it "scientifically" as it is a very fluid situation.

when max pain is only 1 to 2 strikes away, they usually work to some degree. and also, max pain does not mean they have to close at max pain by expiry - all it implies is during the last 2 weeks they usually would touch max pain.

you can check qqq alone, i believe it touched max pain and slightly throw over (a pt or so) in each of the past 5 months during the last 2 weeks of each cycle. you can go to iqauto.com to check past max pain points and compare your historical quotes data to see how it work.
