AMZN options report for 11/17/98 AMZN price: 148.500 Options Study for: NOV put break-even: 129.45 OI = 11947 VOL = 16137 call break-even: 150.18 OI = 18852 VOL = 16862 max. pain: 120.07 R = 0.6 R = 1.0 Options Study for: DEC put break-even: 122.28 OI = 2571 VOL = 2543 call break-even: 155.10 OI = 4128 VOL = 3667 max. pain: 125.05 R = 0.6 R = 0.7 Options Study for: JAN put break-even: 116.79 OI = 2197 VOL = 714 call break-even: 162.38 OI = 7057 VOL = 1278 max. pain: 111.65 R = 0.3 R = 0.6 Options Study for: APR put break-even: 108.76 OI = 1580 VOL = 135 call break-even: 171.12 OI = 2282 VOL = 728 max. pain: 125.05 R = 0.7 R = 0.2 net long/short: 1.40 mil. i.v. for NOV = 1.00 i.v. for DEC = 0.83 i.v. for JAN = 0.83 i.v. for APR = 0.75 What a move today, in AMZN. The implied vols. spiked today in the Nov. options back up to 100, yet the other options stayed steady in the 83% range. The "max pain" at 120 looking a little silly as a Friday closing prediction, but AMZN, anything is possible.
