Herm,

re: SMOD

I have found that the Dreyfus site has a significant delay when reporting new strikes on options. As of the close on Friday and even now, I just checked, Dreyfus doesn't show the lower strikes on SMOD (15s and 17.5s) even though they were issued and traded on Friday.

Although the net, bid, ask, and volume have been cleared sometime over the weekend, my visit on Saturday to the SMOD option chain on CBOE showed:

CALLS volume
June 15 = 180
June 17.5 = 70
July 15 = 791
July 17.5 = 100
Oct 15 = 37
Oct 17.5 = 55

For more up-to-the-minute option data (20-min delayed, of course) you might look into CBOE, the Pacific Exchange, and Philadelphia Exchange, links below:

Hope this helps...
