X-man, I tried that 'max pain' calculation before, but have lost my notes. Will look at it this weekend. Don't know how much stock to put in that sort of thing though. I think AMZN is too liquid and too heavily traded for the options tail to wag the dog.

(and there's just too many strikes on AMZN. For example, what impact do July 20's have on a stock trading at 100?)
