Supak, <just want to add that you have to keep in mind that those options activity may have been opened from a short side (puts and calls) and that the person who initiated the position from a short side have an entirely different prospect for the underlying stock movement. > Yup! Apparently there is an alternate world in options on the institutional side that is invisible to mere mortals like us. I am taking the data as an indicator of retail sentiment more than anything else. <Hope this is still a topic of interest to you but we have like hundreds of post a day I can't keep up.> Yes it is. I just looked through the data Michael presented and am looking forward to seeing what other folks on the thread think about this whole option interest topic. Regards, Chuck
