Jeff,
I also watch these type of numbers. However, I have noticed spikes in the
numbers just before option expiration which tend to evaporate the day after
expiration. This says to me to take any extreme numbers on expiration day
with a grain of salt. If too much bearishness, via the option numbers,
continues on Tuesday, then I will get excited that a low is near.
Cheers,
Norman
