the big players can't move on a dime,so the turns are big events, helps to watch the larger picture and try to figure whether they are still buying, turning short ,still selling,where the next turn could be and play accordingly, you will never have all the info but if you watch it long enough you will have enough,you are absorbing it whether you know it or not,it's an advantage to consciously make mental notes,all that crap in your head adds up,whether you can decipiher ii or not,it does form an intuition

It's all good debate, but you have absolutely nothing to back it up. I won't bet against 140 because it's arguing against the distribution (long gamma), and I am not prone to taking long-gamma on expiration week.

Decipher is a euphemism for guess. You're betting against the straddle paying off.

It would be great if it were predictive, but we have to wait for expiration week to see a useful OI figure and then it's ATM. So yes, it's a bet on the center of the distribution. It's betting for Obama after he wins FL and OH.
