HERE IS ANOTHER THING YOU CAN USE THAT IS VERY VERY HELPFUL-GO TO -- Schaeffer's Investment Research--UNDER OPTIONS- SCROLL DOWN TO THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE page on the left side to---to open interst configuration---click on it-- and you will notice the big shift from puts to calls on amzn starting this last monday-look at the net gain for the puts and calls from mon thru thur--here is where you check the different months volume versus open interest--using this simple aproach would of put ypu up 1000% on the nov 110-130 calls if you sold right now----Date Call IO Put IO

Did you play this at all today? I didn't see any posts indicating you had chosen a side on this yesterday (hoping you went long before the close!).

First of all, the AMZN play was a "lucky" bet.
MSFT had their earnings call today, and their options didn't do crap.
This is all just a "crap shoot", IMHO.
Goldman Sachs has made it that way.
