Hello, again, Herman,
Best of luck on finding a house. Try to avoid building one. We did last year and this year we're redefining the term Mudhole.

You were previously talking about Daily Volume and Open Interest...items I'd been ignoring up to now. Well, now that I'm tracking them I see instances where the Daily Volume was zero but the Open Interest jumped way up...I'm stumped. (I'm getting my info from the CBOE page) There are others where there is D.V. but O.I. is zero which I assume is same day buys and sells (this was on puts and the stock price took a nosedive).
Also, what's the risk in messing with options where there is very little open interest?..Can you get stuck with something there's no market for or do the MM's take care of that? Does the fact that there's a price published but no volume mean the prices are realistic?

I sure appreciate the expertise from you or anyone else.
Thanks
jim
