The Max-Pain number is fairly easy to calculate. You can just load open interest to your Excel spreadsheet and use the solver add-in.

Joe,

Thanks...I wasn't thinking thru what the term MaxPain meant...maximum pain to max nos of investors. I took it to mean that it was the number that best reflected the ratio of calls to puts.

Appreciate the explanation.

Joseph Re: I wonder how high the open interest in calls is compared to historical numbers.

Joseph,
The put/call ratio is at a 10 year high for AMD in favor of calls. This is a bullish sign (at least from the options players).
