In the "Better Late than Never" Department, a post to Bev. I cannot find her post because SI is jammed, it appears. I was trying to get on and failed for awhile. Bill Gates Junior waltzed in and told me it might be my fault, like I hit the wrong key or something. No, he thought it was my Cable Modem. So while he tried to log on using some UNIX Shell whatever I tried 2 other ISPs. Nothing. He now admits it is SI that is having problems. Just wait until he is there for the reading of the Will and we shall see who has problems. Anyway, Bev had a question on Option activity last expiration and I tried to find it but the response is slow so I shall just post this old e-mail from a CBOE MM. I was dumping a lot of stuff that I archived because I thought one day it might be good to know. We all have those things, it's not until we clean house that we come across them. Here is the post from him, for future reference when one is looking at high Option activity during expiry...... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ About 70% of the trading in the OEX is non directional market maker to market maker. If the public is buying puts..the floor is shorting futures and buying calls. You have to be real cautious about how you use p/c data in a world where the lions share of trading is hedge related.
