I wish it did help and I'm sorry for not catching on yet BUT, as I understand it ... you first take each call option and you multiply the number of open contracts by the price of the call (I suppose the last bid if there are no sales) and you get a value for each expiration date. Then you do the same thing for the puts. Then you plot the values on a time line. Right?

I thought the top on was a line chart of each of the two lines, which will give you an intersection.. Then the lower chart is a fill chart of the same information.

I know I'm wrong here someway and if I don't get it the next time... give up on me ... I don't want to be a drag on everyone else.
