jbn3, well it was not such an inaccurate call since the stock was bouncing against $22 when the "call" was made. As a matter of fact most of the day it was just under $25.

"re max pain: Tim, actually the "most pain point" on the March options will be just under $25/share for this Friday, the $25 strike for both calls and puts is the largest open interest, and there are 45 more calls contracts (535 vs 490)"

That's not how it works. A close at 25 would make all those puts & calls worthless. "just under $25" would make the puts worth something.

"Closed at 24.... "
Thus making all the Mar 25 puts worth $1/sh.
