bullrider, You are correct. To get a thorough picture of the forces acting on a stock, you most certainly need to consider the 'short interest' positions. But I find it difficult to get that data on a timely basis, and then it isn't 'tied' to any particular short term event eg the third Friday of the month. So I'm not sure how I would factor it in other than as a warm-fuzzy/cold-prickley type of indicator. What I'd really like to get info on is a way to get the volume of 'naked' open interest at each strike price. Thanks for your comment, Ben A. ez-pnf.com
