John,
This coming week is option expiration week for March. There are tons of institutional positions at 110. So don't be surprised at a pop to 110. Note previous high was 120.

I was looking at the options and the larger number of open interest appears at the 100 strike. However, there appears to be a short term buy indicated by stochastics so I would also lean toward an upward movement next week. I was wondering how you came up with the info of institutional position 110 calls.

Ted

looks like MSFT's gaming console already has the competition running scared:

TOKYO, March 13 (Reuters) - The following stocks are on the move on Monday.

0135 GMT - Sega Enterprises down by its daily limit of 400 yen or 17.62 percent at 1,870. Nintendo Co Ltd also down by its daily limit of 2,000 yen, or 10.47 percent, at 17,100.

Traders said shares in both manufacturers of video game players came under selling pressure due to last week's announcement that Microsoft Corp (NasdaqNM:MSFT - news) will begin selling a video game player in 2001.
