What is the "Implied Volatility" of a stock that you can download with
HISTORYBANK?

Of course, implied volatility is a characteristic of options, not stocks
(nor any other underlying).  The volatility of the underlying stock or
future is the ACTUAL volatility, not the implied vol.

Anyone have any idea what they're referring to with the implied volatility
they allow you to download for stocks?  Maybe I need to send back the
McMillan and
Fontanills tapes they sent me so they can read up on options pricing...


Good trading,
