ben:ot: options writers. Many people wrote covered calls @45.

idea proposed is that option writers know what they are doing since they hold the stock and are more familiar with it. therefore if u see max pain around 42.5 or 45 it is pretty clear that u can safely keep your stock and make small change.

what i was trying to say if we watch july volume/open intrest in may and june and note the change in volume. it is the change in volume at various strike prices that maybe worth noting.

so if in may or june i start looking at July open intrest and keep
watching it I may have better idea of what is going to happen in july.

i don't think what i m saying makes much sense. but it was this kind of sujective look at option chain that helped me to decide buy Sunw
on the last down grade.
