The ISE is the largest options exchange by dollar volume amongst the 6 exchanges. They do about 35% of all dollar volume.

Weird, both of our first posts today were within one second of each other.

About 30% of the volume through ISE is taggeed as "individual" related. ISE's share of the index option trading pie is ~5% (ignoring options on futures), their share of equity options is ~25-30%. They are the volume (but not dollar) leader in US issues.

Combining all that, their sentiment reading is based on roughly 5% of all vanilla options trading.
