Kelly, I am not aware of options contract trading having any meaningful effect on the price of the underlying stock. If you have any specific examples, I would be interested in learning more. Usually it will be the other way around. The only specific situation I can think of is right at expiration, you might get some large holders of options contracts trying to nudge the stock price slightly higher or lower in order to have it close on Friday expiration above or below the strike price. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kelly Short" <kelly.short@tx.us.neoris.com> To: <canslim@lists.xmission.com> Sent: Wednesday, August 21, 2002 2:50 PM Subject: [CANSLIM] The effect of expiring options Someone has mentioned previously that stocks will sometimes experience a short term move upward because of option holders selling off their soon-to-expire option contracts. Can someone please provide more information on this topic or point me to a good source of information to understand this phenomenon more clearly?
