What is your price target on this baby?
BABA

- Start date
Your post piqued my interest, and now BABA is on our radar. BABA not in my stable, but will watch. Here's my take:
1) Put/Call Ratio in the $105-$111 strike zones (a/o today's close) are 3:1. The 3/24, 3/31,4/7 and 4/13 P/C ratios lean more toward strong bullish implied volatility. Overall bullish, subject to mkt. change.
2) Insider/Institutional activity (6 months, quarter before last, respectively): Nil to none, or just "plain ole" not available. Neutral
3) Earnings: Report on 5/3. Estimate is +.71 vs. .44 Q1 2016: Appears to be bullish. From a fundamental standpoint, very impressive jump!
4) Analysts: 39 of them. Price target consensus is $127.15: Bullish until the earnings are reported
5) Shorts are very high. 13.25% of the float is short. Very bearish. The shorts are either very right, or "very" wrong. Be careful, this will end up has a very hard 50/50. Quite scary, yet very attractive!
We're setting the following: E-here at ~$108, S- $107.23 T- $111.05. Nice R/R/R of 3.89:1
Just providing info. May the trend be with you Michael J. Fletcher...

Hey what service are you using to break out those individual put/call ratios?
I only get an aggregrate, unless I do it manually.
Hey VZ. It's proprietary bud. We get from exclusive source. I believe you can get similar info from Yahoo Finance.
Noooooo. Yahoo Finance doesn't break down P/C ratios for certain expiration's. Hell Fidelity ATP doesn't even do it.
What exclusive source?! This isn't top secret stuff here. The data all comes from the exchanges.
Name names Rambo.
Where's Robert Morse when I need him.

Neither my source, nor Yahoo Finance are real time "just closing prices". Regardless, you can find expirations on Yahoo Finance right here:

Toggle top left of displayed chain for different expiry...
Okay now some positive spirited fun...
You put thoughts into data, it becomes the data, you put the data into a quote, it becomes the quote, you put the quote into the source, it becomes the source. Be the thoughts my friends
Peace VZ!

Perhaps I misunderstood you.
I thought you were saying you had the ability to get a p/c ratio for a particular expiration date across all strikes without doing it manually using the push of a button. Like this particular page... http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/baba/option-chain?dateindex=5 .... If I wanted to know the P/C ratio of Oct '17 expirations, I'd have to break out a calculator.
Oh well... never mind. No biggie RB.
