AMZN options report for 09/04/98 AMZN price: 86.250 Options Study for: SEP put break-even: 81.42 OI = 8728 VOL = 2116 call break-even: 96.08 OI = 7446 VOL = 1446 max. pain: 105.04 R = 1.2 R = 1.5 Options Study for: OCT put break-even: 75.42 OI = 9392 VOL = 707 call break-even: 99.38 OI = 5843 VOL = 305 max. pain: 84.99 R = 1.6 R = 2.3 Options Study for: JAN put break-even: 67.53 OI = 4734 VOL = 135 call break-even: 105.82 OI = 2350 VOL = 80 max. pain: 99.95 R = 2.0 R = 1.7 Options Study for: APR put break-even: 61.93 OI = 331 VOL = 1 call break-even: 113.65 OI = 99 VOL = 30 max. pain: 94.97 R = 3.3 R = 0.0 net long/short: -0.74 mil. i.v. for SEP = 1.33 i.v. for OCT = 1.10 i.v. for JAN = 0.94 In spite of the fact that AMZN closed little changed on the day, implied vols. remain sky high in Sept. Put/call ratios are lopsided to the put side; looking like it is time for an upside bounce, assuming the market can keep its footing. Which is a big "if" these days.
