Lisa, <What I find an interesting comparison is to compare the implied volatility of Puts vs Calls to see whether the MM has a bias towards one or the other> I think it is very interesting to see the comparison for comparisons sake.. I dont think you need both to understand the equation, since if what I am saying is true the variations between the 2 formulae would only be small. I would like to see the difference and when the differences might effect the movement.. I do think that the call pricing (and put pricing) are like watching the futures of the market.. I was watching CNBC last week and they had the S&P Futures up and it was different than the current price and I watched the S&P flow to that point.. it was intriuging to see how that play occurred... and I think if one were to watch the options pricing, it might do the same.. Still unsure but wow would that be great if true! It might work like Don wants, go after every ripple.. watch the change in the pricing.. I have real time qoutes and I watch the bloomberg here and I like seeing the move.. Anywho.... I am still developing this theory, but if anyone wants to track it and tell me the results, that would be great!!! See ya...
