Why did the score drop from +50 to +33 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was +50.4 on 3 Oct, then fell to +32.8 on 4 Oct as the price moved from $529.40 to $529.40. It’s at +32.8 now.+30.7 from volume and +2.1 from open interest. I can’t split past days the same way: the stored history keeps call/put volume but not open interest for past days.
