number of strike calls and puts

y is that some stk have more strike calls and puts compared to other stks given same price and amt of volatility?

how much stk price would go that new strike calls and puts would be added?

 

???????????

 

My God! It's a first. You were "stumped" by that question? :eek:

 

Perhaps some examples would make your question clearer.

 

Perhaps, historically a broader range thereby creating more strikes, or also, a stock split which creates the odd strikes, or perhaps, you can call the options exchange and ask them to open a new strike, and guess what they will.

 

Yes, I was, I am happy to admit... Why don't you give it a try?
