 I'm curious if there has been any unusual changes in the P/C ratio or open

expiration week?

Ray,

Months ago there was someone here that talked about the OEX put/call ratio 
alone. Don't remember all the rules, but in general, when the end of day OEX 
put/call ratio (http://www.cboe.com/tools/statistics/summeriz.asp) was 
greater than 1.5 a move up was indicated. Below 1 was bearish. Again, there 
were additional rules I've forgotten, but in general it is very good. I 
certainly check it nightly. Things gets somewhat "out of whack" near 
expiration, but it is worth the time to follow this indicator.
