Max pain is the closing price at which option holders, as a group, would collect the least. Think of it as the price where the most tickets would expire worthless.
For Oct 16, max pain is $180, $1.49 above today's price. If the stock closed there on expiry day, option holders would collect about $44M in total, less than at any other strike. The theory is that dealer hedging pulls the price toward it near expiry. In practice it is a loose tendency, not a forecast.
