Oj the hell it wont effect you or I a program sell hits Kevin has a tight neutral zone the premium for puts is jacked the market goes to his buy point for puts...he pays a higher prem than normal the market whipsaws him (just happened to him recently .whipsawed him back and forth...but dont know if it was because of a buy/sell program) why does the market whipsaw him because it was a tight neutral zone...the market goes back up after the sell program...and the prem is stripped from the put more than normal because as Kevin indicated they jack the prem on a buy/sell program can you understand now? not saying it happens all the time i am saying there is a potential (not to mention the problem with making a profit on OEX anyway..and why traders are bailing on it)
