Those of us who understand Max Pain know its meaning and influences. If you don't get it, it's just one less thing you need to worry about in the market. I have found it an invaluable tool. Last Friday Dow 8000 was Max Pain. Guess where we've been hanging out? S&P was 850. QQQ was 24.60 or so. Here was my Max Pain early look from 2-weeks ago. Message 18553362

ATA - I guarantee you I mention max pain in plenty of time. I also mentioned that I was worried about the buildup of puts in March which are even bigger. I got out of my IBM puts (2 points too early) because max pain was at 80. I got aout at 86 and the damn thing fell to 84. I was early back in at 89 as I was too impatient. I believe I am here in time most of the time, but everyone is more interested in the wave count, that still suggested more down. I almost always do a post a couple weeks before expiry, then one week before expiry (and that is the critical one). M
