I did a rough computations as to December Options position.

Following is the net exposure to Option Writers at various stock prices. Calculations is based on Call/Put Open interest and todays premium.
Stock Price Dollar exposure to Option Writers
22 $13,318 Millions
23.375 12,357
24 12,885
25 12,856
26 13,357

Therefore, theoritically if MM wanted to get out with a low payout premium, then stock should open up around 23.375. This calculation doesnt take into account any option rotation.

Regards

Kumar
