Facinating post on options expiration. I knew something was up! Unfort. AMAT is not one of the stocks he has charted on the web site you reference. Is there any way for us to know what the optimal "pain" point would be for Friday's expiration? I always just imagined that whatever strike price was closest to the open on 3rd friday was where MMs would usher the price. I saw a striking example of this for June expiration in ADPT. The MMs literally ushered the price to the next lowest strike price and would not let it budge. I appreciate any input you may have for AMAT since the day looms near, I fear.
