re: maxpain 37.5:

I lowered my next incremental sell order, from 40 to 37.5. I had thought that this rebound would peak at a retest of former support, from below, but it seems to be fading before 40. Odd that maxpain should be up.

Not really ... when I looked at it Tuesday evening, the 35 strike and the 37.5 strike were calculated identically to the 4th significant digit. A small shift in open positions, as normally occurs in the week approaching the close, could have tipped the max-pain point to the other strike.

They still appear close - 3d sig digit - data below.

32.5-----33422250
35-------28747000
37.5-----28615000 -Maximum-Pain Theory Value
40-------32135000
