Dave,
I occasionally will look at the PHLX site and more often than not, it is missing whole series of options, wrong historical volatility, not to mention listing dividends for non-div paying stocks.
For example, I went to look at SUNW and they don't even list any options above 50 strike for JAN00.
When the data is right however, it's a great site to go to.

Dave,

I suspect the differences are the result of the historical volatility numbers they are using.

Rose's file need to be unzipped and you get an EXCEL spreadsheet and a text file with instructions

When I hear the word "unzipped" I think a certain thing and to you it means something entirely different. I warned you about my computer skills. Maybe you can instruct me how to "unzip". Keep it clean.

Regards,

Ken
