It seems to me that most options activity will normally be in the strike prices approximately at-the-money. Thus, the "max-pain" indicator is likely to point to a strike price very near the current price, and to move with current price over time. Have you ever seen the max-pain point more than a couple of dollars away from current price? Did subsequent stock price movement validate the indicator in those cases?

JMHO.
