Which stock options are the most highly traded?
I am looking for a list of the stocks which have the most activity on their options. I know that SPY and the index options are the most highly traded, but that is not what I am looking for. I want to know the top stocks for option liquidity (eg. Wells Fargo, Facebook, Google, Exxon, etc.). Which options consistently have active and liquid trading occurring every day.
If there is a list out there of say the top 100 actively traded options that would be great. Does anyone know where I can find the most consistently traded options? Ads |

See if the Yahoo Finance link below is helpful.
This is so easy you really don't need a list. - Liquid stocks have liquid options, so just look at the most actively traded stocks. - Strike prices close to the current stock price tend to have the most activity. - Near dated options tend to be more liquid than longer term. Ads |

Another good source is to look at the CBOE's list of stocks that trade weekly options. If weekly's are traded, it's because the options are extremely liquid. Here's the link to the list, which is updated regularly:
