<without the exytremes in the EPC>
Z, why are you keep saying that there were no extremes in put/call?
On Dec 31,
- "retail only buy to open" P/C was at the highest level in 4 years (meaning that suckers were buying calls like in 2000)
- OEX P/C was at the lowest level in a couple of years
- CBOE EPC (21 MA) was slightly higher only once - in Dec 03
etc, etc, etc
By almost every measure, P/C were at extreme levels
Not saying that nassacre is here or that it's time to short.
