Boy, I wish I would have closed when Jan did yesterday. Same here. I'm holding one last Sep put (worth considerably less this evening than it was this morning). What really smarts about this ridiculous action is that I was anticipating it. Shoulda learned my lesson last month. A good trader would have gone long yesterday. But that's the problem when you have a bias one way or another regarding a stock -- you fail to act on changes in the price action that contradict that bias. Anyway, tomorrow's another day and we can all look forward to riding this rollercoaster back down again. Great call, Jan. - Peter B

Glenn, Take a look at the data table you posted. See how the lowest September strikes are 70s? This can't be correct, they have to go all the way down into the 20s, and some of them are going to be at goofy 1/2 dollar strikes due to the stock split. (Also, the open interest data is from last night.) Boy, I wish I would have closed when Jan did yesterday. -nfg- IS, The other post had the symbols for the lower strikes. I will see if I can get them all with the OI too. Glenn
