Tim, do you know where to get the strike price on a stock during expiration? I'm not sure what you are asking for. Strike prices and expiration usually refer to options. The options include both calls and puts each of which has different strike prices and different prices. (the more in the money or the further out in time the option is written the higher its price). Tim, I don't understand fully how calls and puts work but apparently during each expiry period, the combo of all the puts and all the calls yields a strike price range. So for AMD, it might be $16-18 with $17 most likely being what someone today referred to as the strike price. I think probably Max Pain is the equivalent. Thanks for the links. ted
