Hmmm... Well I have to say I have absolutely no idea what either of those things is. When I refer to Max Pain, I'm talking about the price of options on QQQ, as reported by the CBOE. quote.cboe.com The relationship I referred to is between the NDX and QQQ, which is set by Nasdaq at 40:1 (with a small fudge factor for the administrative costs of the QQQ Trust). Anyhow, that's my understanding of what we're talking about when we discuss Max Pain a la BCA Software ez-pnf.com or iQauto iqauto.com
