Ben and Jim- thanks, and could you help me... with references to where I can get options prices that are charted or can be downloaded? I'm a huge fan of Ben's max-pain site. I refer it to just about everyone I know. Ben, do you know of any more detailed articles on how the economics tends to nudge prices to the max pain point? I'm a believer that it is market forces that do this, not conspiracy. However, when you see a strong case, it sure LOOKS fishy! (Example, MRVC last expiration! Holy Smokes, did that look funny. And I was SELLING June $10 calls cheering DOWN! DOWN! DOWN! (got assigned anyhow. :^) ) ) exchange2000.com I'm also a mathematician interested in data modeling, so if I ever got a crack at it, I would like to try out some homebrew. TIA Web
